What this product is

AEW SP Signature Edition is basically an autograph product dressed in a tux. It’s built for quick rips and high hit probability:

  • 1 pack per box

  • 3 cards per pack

  • Every box averages:

    • 1 Autograph card

    • 1 Base Set card /249

    • 1 Base Set Parallel /99 or less (down to 1/1)

Upper Deck also states every pack includes one autographed card and every card is numbered, so you’re never pulling “filler commons.”

Base set (the foundation)

  • 100-card Base Set, with every base card numbered to /249.

  • Design notes (SP Signature “look”): large white background, “popped-out” image, single-color design element, and deco foil linework.

Base parallels (your main “non-auto” chase ladder)

Known parallel tiers listed in product breakdowns:

  • Red /99

  • Orange /75

  • Yellow /50

  • Green /25

  • Blue /10

  • Purple /5

  • Black /1-of-1

Chase vibe: the Black 1/1 versions are the “print-run unicorns” for the base side.

The autographs (the whole point 😈)

Every box has one autograph card on average.

Key auto sets + known odds (pack/box ratios)

From the published product breakdown:

  • Base Set – Auto Parallel: 1:3

  • Authentic Signatures: 1:5

  • Angles (dual-label matchups): 1:8

  • Plus additional multi-sign + hard-signed sets below (numbered, but not all have a stated ratio).

Hard-signed “premium ink” sets (big chase energy)

These are specifically called out as hard-signed in the official-style breakdowns:

  • AEW INKredible (hard-signed) #/99

  • AEW GRAPHiti (hard-signed) #/50

  • Authentic Signatures (hard-signed) 1:5 packs

Multi-signed autograph chases (the “group photo” hits)

  • Signature Duals #/50

  • Signature Triples #/25

  • Signature Quads #/10 (the seriously short-printed flex)

Highest-end auto chase

Upper Deck explicitly highlights 1-of-1 Black Auto parallels as a marquee chase

Box/case math (how the rip “feels”)

  • With 20 boxes per case (3 cards each), a full case is 60 total cards and 20 autographs (because it’s 1 auto per box).

  • Cardboard Connection also summarizes case expectations such as multiple hard-signed autos and multiple multi-signed autos per case (useful expectation-setting for breakers).

(If you want, tell me whether you’re ripping single boxes or thinking “case break,” and I’ll translate those odds into a quick “what you’ll realistically see” cheat sheet.)

“Chase card” checklist, in plain English

If you’re making a chase list for the video, these are your headline targets:

Top-tier chases

  • 1/1 Black base parallels

  • 1/1 Black Auto parallels

  • Signature Quads /10

High-end “premium ink” chases

  • AEW GRAPHiti (hard-signed) /50

  • AEW INKredible (hard-signed) /99

  • Authentic Signatures (hard-signed) 1:5

Frequent “workhorse hits”

  • Base Auto Parallel (1:3)

  • Angles duals (1:8)

Quick “known pack odds” recap

These are the clear, published ratios you can safely quote:

  • 1 autograph per box (per pack) on average

  • Authentic Signatures: 1:5

  • Base Set Auto Parallel: 1:3

  • Angles: 1:8

Everything else is still numbered and trackable by print run (so you can talk scarcity even without a printed ratio).
