1997 Topps Screenplays is a 20-card all-lenticular card set released in the Summer of 1997. Each card displays 24 frames of actual game footage with the help of Kodak's revolutionary Kodamotion technology. The cards have a dura clear back.

Each card is individually packaged in a collectible tin that resembles a movie reel canister and features a full-color image of the player inside. The fronts of each tin are packaged with protective cover that conceals the player's image. The tin contains a display stand for it and the card and includes player info, bio, and stats.

Each 21-tin sealed Hobby box contains the entire 20-card set plus one of six Premium Series inserts.

The cards are unnumbered and checklisted below in alphabetical order.
