2021 Historic Autographs Famous Americans Non-Sport Forum

Ok, I'm hoping the checklist I uploaded for this one isn't too uncorrectable...  So after doing a bit of research and confirming with manufacturer the base set of cards (not designated parallel cards) has 2 different versions.  The version one gets when opening a pack from blasters or hobby boxes is random.  

1 version of each base card has the word "Historic" embossed on front of card coating and other version has the word "Inspire" embossed on front card coating.

Example of "historic" on the base card below.  This card would also have a second version with "inspire" on it which could also be pulled as a base card version (not a designated parallel card) from any given pack.  

What might be the best way to identify differential on the database and how might I best go about editing here to correct?

Thank you for any assistance.

Your image doesn't show, but I looked at the set.

I see you've separated the factory set parallel into 2 sets.

If these are truly just VARs that can be pulled out of packs at the same rate, the set should be set up with 2 versions of each card - the [a] version being the "Historic" and the [b] version "Inspire". And then the parallel sets should be combined. We have some good tools to do that so juts put in an IR to get them combined. We can add the proper notes first, then combine them and re-order them. Easy. Base set, not as easy, but I have a lot of experience in doing these, and could do it fairly easily these days.

Thank you for taking a look.

The sealed factory sets are sold as the entire set (330 cards).  They produced a total of 500 factory sets and are noted as a radiant parallel card.  Of the 500 radiant parallel factory sets, 250 were produced with a "Historic" embossmant on the cards and the other 250 sets have an "inspire" embossment.  Each set has a print run of 250.  When purchasing the entire factory set it is random which word embossment your set will have, but all cards in that factory set have the same word embossment.

However, for the regular base cards which are found in the blasters/hobby boxes they different embossments are randomily mixed within packs and boxes.  These do not have any stated print runs.  Each base card wthin those packs could equally be either version.

I'm not sure if that changes anything or best thing is still to put in IR to combine the factory sets and variants for the regular base?

Thank you for the assistance in getting this set up/corrected.

Yeah, that does change how the parallels work. That's great info.

However, doesn't change what needs to happen with the base set. That will still need some work, but it's managable.

We'll PM the details on that.

Wow, I never realized the work that goes into making these checklists so accurate.  Kudos everyone!  I saw the embossment on the cards as I flipped through them, but didn't realize that each card could have two versions.  Will you be working on adding the other parallels from the set into the checklist?  Specifically the Alloy, Aurora and Printing Plates as the checklist for those should be the same.  The other inserts I'm unsure of where you'd pull the checklists (I personally only have a couple of the Movie Clip cards, and none of the signature, garment, art sketch, employee's picks or hair cards.  Thanks!

I suspect card 81 should actually be Jesse James (the outlaw), not Jessie James?  Don't click that name link if you're at work, by the way.

I have been working on the Film Cell Checklist.  I did not know there was so many different when I started to try to get one together.  Right now I am up to 150 different ones.  I used Ebay current and sold listings along with COMC active and sold listings plus some other areas.  Anyone have any that I may have missed? I only have a few in hand but verified each one below and the SN with pictures of the cards.

Need to add the Alloy and Aurora parallels which I can do but need to know if there were multiple embossed prints on those too.

I've pulled 5 Alloy (I think) parallels with a print run of 150 and all have Historic embossed.  I have more packs to open so can try confirming.

In a side note I "love" (hate) the fact that Inspire is embossed on calls with people only famous for being murderers.
