	The other gimmick is an "unautographed/autograph" card. The front of the card is without the facsimile autograph that is (except for cards meant to be autographed) part of the design of the BowChro base set, and sports the "CERTIFIED AUTOGRAPHED ISSUE" logo that has been on just about every Topps autographed card for at least a decade. The reverse side has a white box with the words "NOT VALID WITHOUT STICKER." The "Not Valid" box is where the now-familiar black hologram sticker Topps uses for authentication purposes on autographed cards is meant to be affixed.
