Autographs[edit]

Autographed Prospect Refractors[edit]

Each Autographed Prospect Refractor is also available in the following Refractor parallels.

  • Green Refractor (numbered to 199)
  • Blue Refractor (numbered to 99)
  • Red Refractor (numbered to 10)
  • SuperFractor (one-of-one, Hobby only)
  • Printing Plates (four-for-each, Hobby only)

NOTE: Due to low initial Hobby sales, Topps was forced to add an additional autograph to each Bowman Platinum Hobby box. This came in the form of a redemption card good for a Prospect Autograph Refractor and packaged as a box topper. These box topper redemption cards did not mention the player (you got whomever Topps sent you) but did mention the color of the Refractor parallel (if any). These redemptions expired December 31st, 2012.

Through the Hobby media, Topps made available a list of eleven players who signed; nine of which are listed with an "EXCH" below. As for the other two players (Graham Hicks and Kyle Wieland), their autographs have yet to emerge and it can be assumed were never made.

NOTE: Despite the fact that all cards in this set have the words "GAME-WORN JERSEY" on the front; many, but not all, of the Autographed Relic Refractors contain a swatch of jersey patch material instead. In an effort to combat tampering, some card companies (including Topps) have begun to label game-used cards as either "jersey" or "patch." Fortunately, due to the fact that there are so many patch cards in this set, potential patch tampering has been all but thwarted.
