2017 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball Variations Checklist and Gallery
Checklist
Sporting a retro design, the 2017 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball variations give collectors something else to chase in addition to an assortment of parallels, inserts and hits. Switching gears from previous years, the GQ variations have gotten an overhaul for 2017.
While there are indeed more variations in the 2017 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball checklist, Topps also amped up the unannounced parallels and that's where things get a little wild.
Thanks to brentandbecca, we have most of the details about what to expect from Gypsy Queen this year. The odds noted below are for Hobby packs.

Missing Blackplate / Missing Nameplate Parallels
First off, the Missing Blackplate (1:9 packs), Missing Nameplate (1:21) and Green Back (1:63 - 50 copies) cards are each a true parallel that applies to all of the base (#1-300) and base Short Prints (#301-320). As an example of these parallels, the Missing Nameplate comparisons are shown below:


Missing Blackplate, which removes the black from most of the card, giving it a more faded look, also carries over to the base Autographs, Chewing Gum Autographs and the 2017 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball Variations. Another easy way to note the Missing Blackplate card is that the player position is not visible on the front of the card.


Capless Image Variations
Getting to the actual SP image swaps, the Capless image variations (1:158 packs) provide a more casual photo example of top players. As the title indicates, subjects are shown without their hats. Because they were noted on the initial sell sheet and listed on the final checklist, these were the only expected inclusion within the 2017 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball variations checklist.
However, the surprise here comes with the Capless variation parallels: Green (#/99), Missing Blackplate (1:315) and Black (1:48,512).
Throwback Uniform Image Variations
New to the set are the Throwback image variations (1:420 packs). These too have Missing Blackplate (1:629) and Black (1:62,373) parallels along with Missing Nameplate and Green Border (#/99). The cards feature retro uniforms for top players just like the popular Heritage edition.
Card Back Content Variations (Gum Ad)
The third and final 2017 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball variations deal with backs that replace the stats with a large bubble gum logo and ad. These are the toughest to pull at 1:629 packs. There are again Missing Blackplate (1:943) and Black (1:87,322) parallels.
There is also a separate list for Card Back Content Variation Autographs (1:824) with Missing Blackplate (1:3,054) and Black (1:43,661) parallels.
