Topps is in a celebratory mood with 2021 Topps Baseball. It’s the 70th installment of the flagship line since its landmark 1952 debut. So there’s lots of looking back. At the same time it does what all flagship releases do by reflecting on the current state of the game and its stars.
Compared to recent years, the 2021 Topps Series 1 Baseball checklist takes a bit of a step back as far as size goes. It’s 330 cards, which is down from 350.
The rookie crop features many players debuting in the shortened 2020 season.
