2016 Topps New Era

Description

2016 Topps New Era is a nine-card set distributed nationwide at LIDS stores. Customers who purchase an MLB-licensed New Era hat at a participating LIDS store would receive a pack of four cards. Randomly inserted are Relics and autographed Relics.

The design is from the 2016 Topps flagship set, but with different photographs. Each card has a New Era logo on the reverse side and is sequentially-numbered with a "NEW ERA" prefix -- the only things differentiating these cards from the flagship set.

Most of these packs "snuck out the backdoor" and were widely available on eBay within days after the promotion's start.

Distribution

Four cards with the purchase of an MLB licensed hat at participating LIDS stores.
