The base set is made up of 142 cards. The cards share the design of previous releases of Topps. The cards feature new photographs of each player on old designs of cards from 1951 to 2004. The card backs also mirror previous releases of Topps cards. Many of the cards featured non-players, notable cards include John Elway, shown as a minor leaguer with the New York Yankees, Theo Epstein, and Marvin Miller. Only one current player is featured: Barry Bonds, who opted-out of the MLBPA's Standard Player Agreement and was exclusive to Topps at the time.

The Autographed cards were the main insert set. Two autographs were inserted per Hobby box and one in each retail box. A number of players were not able to get their cards back to Topps prior to packout. Those cards were available via redemption until May 31st, 2007. The Theo Epstein cards were never fulfilled. Collectors redeeming an Epstein exchange card would receive a variety of different Topps signed cards as a replacement.

Each Autograph is also available in a Rainbow parallel, which is serial-numbered to ten.
