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.
