Pattern Types

  • plain — Standard solid-color refractor with no special pattern — the workhorse of the parallel ladder.
  • base — The standard, non-numbered base card. Print run not disclosed; the foundation of the set.
  • auto-patch — Combined autograph + memorabilia patch card — the headline hit of most high-end products.
  • auto — On-card or sticker autograph parallel. Print run and color drive the rarity within the auto ladder.
