2023 Topps Throwback Thursday baseball cards blend baseball’s biggest players with some of Topps’ most iconic card designs from sports and non-sports card sets.
Each throwback design consists of 12 cards released three at a time over a four week period. Every Thursday, three new cards are added to the collection and available exclusively via the Topps website for one week. One of the three cards each week will be the subject of a short print image variant and all the cards have randomly distributed color variants.
Final print runs for each card are determined by consumer demand.
