Need Press Pass info?

I've settled in to the Organize feature on beckett. Bring on the requests.

From browsing Press Pass listings on eBay, I have to wonder if there are red ink versions of all four levels of autographs (bronze, silver, gold and blue) for every player? Because that would make eight different autograph cards. I've also seen some red ink versions where the player just signed his name, and some where he wrote an inscription. Do these carry across all four levels, too? Because that would make 12 different autograph cards.

I'm not sure about that. I really hope that isn't the case. Last I checked beckett didn't list alternate versions...but I will check again later tonight.

I think they're just randomly inserted among each of the four auto levels.

For Parker, I've seen ones with "CP," "Ace," and "Silk"....they look cool, but I don't feel like spending $200+ for them....

From Press Pass' web site...

As an added bonus, a limited amount of “red ink signatures” and “nickname signatures” can be found throughout all versions of the 2008 autographs.

But they don't say that every player has both of those variations for every parallel. I'm guessing it's just a crap shoot, and you'll have to be on the lookout to see exactly which ones your object of affection has. In my case, I've seen red ink and inscription versions of Speights' bronze card, but not his silver, gold or blue. (Funny thing about him is, he's the only player whose silver auto is rarer than his gold).

They also claim there's a blue foil parallel of the base set, one per retail pack, but I haven't seen any such things.

Are there any patches in this set?

Can you say the amount of numbered (Autos/Base/Patches) cards for each, Joey Dorsey, Nicolas Batum, Maarty Leunen.

Joey and Maarty are with the Rocketes, and Nicolas is with the Blazers... if that helped at all.

Would you mind naming off all the JR Giddens there are as well as all the auto variations?

underdawg-I've seen two colors on ebay.

Joey Dorsey has 12 cards.

Batum has 0.

Leunen has 5 cards, all autographs.


lakerfanryan-Giddens has ten different cards. Bronze, Silver, Gold, Blue, and Bronze red ink autos. 1 base and 4 variations of the base card.
