Just picked up two boxes that I've had on hold at my store for over a year (or two...)

Box 1:

1 Box Loader (card 4 of 6)
1 full set + 1 set missing 3 cards
2 Rainbow Chrome cards: C2 and C4
5 Autograph cards: A2 Tom Smith, A3 Brian Downey, A6 Matt Busch, A7 Gordon Purcell, A8 Tom Grindberg
0 Sketch cards
0 Costume cards

Box 2:

1 Box Loader (card 1 of 6)
2 Base Sets (+ 3 cards to finish off previous box's set)
4 Rainbow Chrome cards: C2, C3, C5, C6
4 Autograph cards: A2, A3, A7, A8
1 Sketch card: 790 by Matt Busch
0 Costume cards

Kind of a weird collation with these...I did get 5 of the 6 chrome cards, which was cool. No Xenia Seeburg autograph, and no costume cards out of the 4 boxes I opened. How rare were those? For what it's worth, stated odds on the box are: 3 Chrome cards, 4 Autographs and 1 Sketch.

Overall B+
This may be as close as I will ever get to an ARCHIVE box. Very lucky am I. However, I've tried not to let luck bias my review.
Base set collation is good, and the design is a good mix of profiles and scenes. The pen sketch is top notch, and autos and sketches are hand numbered.
8 cards per pack would have been better. The wrapper design was cramped, but informative. The actor autos are black marker on a grayish background, not as easy to distinguish as the artist autos. The chromes are OK, but the quality of production is lacking.
Obviously, I had a good time with this box, but I have never watched the show.
Also pulled boxloader #2, the exact card I needed to fill the BL set, go figure!

Hey guys and girls I had a quick question regarding this set I managed to get a xenia seeberg auto but there is no number out of 500, it is definately the same card as pictured on several sites but missing the serial number bit on the front of the card that denotes which number it is out of 500. This is definately a genuine card I hope? I just need the costume card now but a few I have seen also have this missing and some dont does it make a difference or is it basically a defective card if it is not printed on the front? I am confused as I dont want to buy teh costume card if there is the possibility it might be false. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated
