2018 Topps Allen & Ginter Non-Baseball Autographs Breakdown
Mixing in a unique assortment of champions, athletes, celebrities, entertainers, broadcasters, and many other career pursuits, the 2018 Topps Allen & Ginter non-baseball autographs continue a hobby tradition that has produced considerable demand in the past.
Naturally, there are still plenty of top MLB players who provide their signatures to the A&G release, but the non-baseball subjects in the 2018 Allen & Ginter checklist normally help up the firepower for the eclectic brand.
Another key component of A&G is the presentation. Most collectors are likely familiar with the hard-signed mini card that is housed in a tropical frame. This frame is synonymous with the Allen & Ginter brand, as are the red-ink signature versions, which tend to be among the rarest autograph options from the product.
The John Boyega autograph is interesting as it features a 2017 A&G card in a 2018 A&G frame. Boyega was actually an unannounced surprise in the set.
The overall Hobby odds for the Framed Mini Autograph insert is 1:58 packs, with low-numbered Black Frames falling at 1:527 packs and Red Ink versions coming 1:1,443 packs. The Full-Size Autographs line, which includes both Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth, averages 1:4,163 packs.
But, it ultimately comes down to the overall quality of the 2018 Topps Allen & Ginter non-baseball autograph lineup. To offer a clear picture of the selection, we have the full 41-card checklist along with images of each subject and a quick note about where you have likely seen them.
