2011 Topps American Pie Baseball Hobby Box

2011 Topps American Pie tells the story of American people, events, fads and fashions from the end of World War II onward across a 200-card base set. Each hobby box holds 24 packs of 8 cards and is configured for 3 autographs, relics, cut signatures or related hits, plus 1 stamped buyback card.

The 200 base cards cover great moments, events and figures in American history, and the base design shifts as the eras change. Two parallels run across the full base set: a foilboard Foil parallel and a Spotlight parallel serial-numbered to 76. Insert sets include 50 Hollywood Walk of Fame cards, 30 Fads & Fashions cards and 20 Hirsute History cards devoted to hairstyles and facial hair of the past.

The hit side centers on American Pie Autographs from 40 celebrities and pop-culture figures, with matching Autograph Relics numbered to 50. Cut signatures appear as one-of-one singles, dual cut books and quad cut books, alongside one-of-one Cut Signature Relics. The signers list includes Henry Winkler, Susan Lucci, Sean Astin, Bob Costas and Carmen Electra, and the checklist adds Topps 60th Anniversary autographs of Charlie Sheen.

Relic sets include Hollywood Walk of Fame Patches numbered to 50, jumbo Hollywood Sign Letter Patches numbered to 25, and hobby-exclusive one-of-one fold-out books that reveal the full Hollywood sign. The Stamp Collection and Coin Collection pair an event or person with a stamp or coin from the matching year, each numbered to 76, with coins in penny, nickel, dime, quarter and half-dollar versions.
