Product Overview
2024 Topps Pristine Baseball is a rare product defined most prominently by its configuration. But once you get into the packs, there’s a broad mix of chrome Refractors, autographs and bold inserts — kind of like a Topps Chrome and Finest hybrid only with very different packaging.
Rip open a pack and not only will you find cards but another pack. Rip open that pack and it’s more cards and yet another pack. Think nesting dolls. Think Alice falling down a rabbit hole. You’re not wrong.
Hobby boxes come with six packs (or 18 if you count all the packs within pack within packs). In those comes three total autographs, one of which also has a relic swatch. Boxes also have five inserts and 10 parallels.
The base set has 300 cards, which matches 2023. Pristine is a product that mixes current players, a lot of rookies and retired stars together. New this year is a 50-card All-Star Game subset that bookends the checklist.
Standard parallels include:
Also included are Pristine parallels that come with a pattern background:
The base set is also the launching point for Pristine Autographs, the main source of signatures in the product. Just over 80 players signed for these making for a deep list. Parallels are similar to the base Pristine versions.
On-card is a running theme on the 2024 Topps Pristine Baseball autographs checklist.
