It’s the fifth edition of Gold Label since the 1990s brand returned to the Topps calendar. Release date is now October 14 after a delay of more than a month.
Each pack will have five cards with seven packs per hobby box and 16 boxes per case. Each box will have one autograph card.
2020 Topps Gold Label Base Set
Each base card is designed to have a posed image and an action shot of the player. Current stars, rookies and retired greats will make up the 100-card base set checklist but there will be three different versions to collect as well as four different parallels of each.
