Description
2011 Topps Lineage is a 200-card set tentatively scheduled for release the week of August 15, 2011. The product will pay tribute to previous Topps sets like 1952 Topps and 1975 Topps, and more obscure releases such as 1968 Topps 3-D, 1964 Topps Stand Ups, and the 1975 Topps Minis
Each 24-pack Hobby box should yield one on-card autograph, another autograph, a relic, and an over-sized box-topper based on the 1964 Topps Giants set.
Distribution
Hobby: 24 pack per box, eight cards per pack.
