Topps Buybacks suck for Player Collectors. The Heritage ones are not so bad because there is the potential of like one per year. But in 2014 when Topps started adding buybacks to everything it got messy quick. Topps didn't issue any print runs or anything they just stamped a bunch of cards 75th Anniversary and us collectors find what we can find. For 2014 Buyback Virdons I have:
- 1958
- 1959
- 1961
- 1965
- 1973
- 1976
- 1978
- 1979
- 1980
The one that came in the COMC shipment is the #147 1976 Astros Team Bill Virdon
Do I have all the 2014 Buybacks now? Who knows? Potentially there are 60,62,63,64 (x2). 72, 73 Variant, 75, 77, 81, 83, and 84 cards that were stamped with the 75th logo on them but until they show up there is no telling if they were even made. They did the same thing in 2015 and 2016 just using different logos.

That's the smallest buyback stamp I've seen. I like it.
