IIRC-- the mediocre sales for the original Archives sets - the 1994 and 1995 had as much to do with the declining sales of all cards after the BB Strike/Hockey Lockout as with the products. The 1991 53 Archives set did very well upon release.
The problem, in everyone's eyes with the 1st group of archives sets were the preponderance of 'commons' in the packs. The kids certainly did not want people such as Bob Trice (or people like that in the packs) and the adults did not want them either. It was not until the products became more "star-based" they did better Rich

The website www.baseballcardpedia.com can help you out with noting what's worthwhile about the various Heritage and Archives sets.

If you are referring to modern Topps Archives sets (2015 or 2016 and so on) then you want to check out this website.
cardboardconnection.com They go into detail and sometimes provide a photo gallery of short prints and photo variations. Last edited by Jantz; 05-28-2017 at 11:37 PM. Reason: Its a secret

It changes from year to year. This year they have "Gold Winner" variations and 1960 gray back variations. I am not sure there are too many short prints this year but I should have all my 2017 sorted tonight. Toughest part of Archives are the subsets IMO.

I love the idea of a Heritage set every year. I absolutely hate all of the other reprints and Archive sets. The reasons..... There are far too many; there seems to be no rhyme or reason to them; and it clogs up searches. I mean.... How many different years are they going to print up a 1987 Topps style card? I'm perfectly content to wait until 2036 Heritage!
