2018 Topps Archives - Hobby Boxes - The Dodgers Rookie History Autographs

As you may know, this seasons Topps Archives brand had retail and hobby boxes released on different dates - over two months apart. Why? I dunno. What I do know it that there is one insert set found in the hobby packs not found in the retail packs. Below is a look at the three Dodger cards found in that insert set. Featured below are three Dodgers' in the Topps Rookie History Autographs set. Go here to check out all of my past post on this brand.
