It also means several Refractors.A hobby-only product, boxes include one autograph and either an insert or parallel in every pack.2021 Topps Stadium Club Chrome Baseball Checklist OverviewThe base set has 400 cards. That’s 100 more than regular Stadium Club, opening up the checklist to some added players, updates and potential rookies not in the earlier set.
