This is the "Topps Logo" autograph variant. It's numbered to 35, but there is also another 35 without the autograph sticker, so they printed 70 of these. The gimmick here is a clear laminate over the card with with "Topps" printed throughout. It's nearly impossible to see in the scan, and not much easier to see in person. Below are two zoomed in screen grabs. It shows up best in the red letting.
Cool. I'll be in no hurry to track down the other 34 of them. From what I can tell, I'm currently the only person chasing these on eBay, but the sellers have been slow to get that memo, as I see the same ones go unsold and get re-listed repeatedly. Guys, you can have my $5-10 or you can keep the card for yourself and pretend it's worth $30-$500, I'll be okay either way.
Number of this card in my collection: 1
How many parallels from this are you missing (sans autograph)?
ReplyDeleteThe 1/1 Gold Auto (is on ebay currently for around $500, I'd go $50 if you happen to be reading)
ReplyDelete"gray scale" non-auto and auto #/15
"Paint Splat" auto #/15
"Rainbow" auto #/25
"Shoe Box Treasure Logo" auto #/99
"Vintage Stock" non-auto #/10
Gold Foil non-auto #/1
and there may be something called a "base auto" that isn't numbered, but I think that's just a result of bad cataloguing in the online checklist.
This "need" list (I don't really "need" any of these) is also subject to change as I'm tracking just about all of them on ebay, sans the gold non-auto #/1.
