Cubs players have cards in four of the 2021 Archives insert sets.
This is from the Peel-off set and it is a total train wreck. The card is numbered 69PO-14 because Topps quality control forgot that they came out in 1963, not 1969.
But that's not the worst part. They are called peel-off because the 1963 originals were stickers that you had to peel off the backing.
But these peel-offs aren't peel-offs. They are not stickers, just a regular cardboard card. How lame is that??
This is a total Photoshop job since Madrigal was injured when he was traded north from the White Sox. He has yet to set foot on the field in a Cubs uniform.
Of course we can't have a set in 2021 without a card or two of Brailyn Marquez.
UGH yeah those retro "peeloffs" like the Heritage head "stand-ups" from a few years back where the original was a stand up of the players floating head with black background and was die cut to "punch out" and "stand up" while the Heritage version was just the player's head on a black background that had images of the cut-outs.
