Can anyone help explain this?

RE: Can anyone help explain this?
I have read that there is an indication that topps produces printing plates for insert purposes and they are not actual used printing plates.

I have no way of knowing if that is true or not, but it wouldn't surprise me

With Digital printing, there are no plates, so are they printing digitally or using 4 color process printing? That would give you the answer. I believe they are still 4 color process and the plates are still used.

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

source? do you remember where you read that?

seems pretty silly, of all things I wouldn't put past topps... I am not really too worried about my printing plates being fake haha.

hell half my printing plates have physical abnormalities on them as well as leftover ink/smudges/fingerprints/etc
