The Simpsons has had its share of anniversaries and milestones. 2000 Inkworks Simpsons 10th Anniversary trading cards not only look back at the show's first decade but includes a significant hobby milestone for the show. This set gave collectors their first taste of Simpsons autographed trading cards.
The 81-card base set largely revolves around characters. Other cards look at the premiere episodes of the first 11 seasons, art spoofs and couch gags.
Autographs come from five of the major voice actors: Nancy Cartwright (Bart), Dan Castellaneta (Homer), Yeardley Smith (Lisa), Harry Shearer (Ned Flanders, Mr. Burns) and Marcia Wallace (Mrs. Krabappel). Inkworks never released official autograph odds, but they are believed to be one in every two or three boxes.
2000 Inkworks Simpsons 10th Anniversary has a few basic inserts that stress fun over anything else. Cut-Up cards (nine cards, 1:11 packs) feature die-cut images of key characters in dynamic poses.Nuclear Neon (six cards, 1:17 packs) are notable for their bright green coloring.
Four Diorama-Rama cards (1:27) work together to form interactive scenes. The first two cards act as backgrounds. The other two are clear and can be placed on the backdrops. The idea is to mimic the animation process.
2000 Inkworks Simpsons 10th Anniversary has a custom binder that's die-cut along the top in the shape of Bart's classic spiked hair.
