So there seems to be a rumor that RA has announced new card licenses for both "Taxi" and "Happy Days". However I don't find any confirmation for that anywhere, although it would seem to align with their recent "Cheers" and "Fraiser" products.

Of those two, "Happy Days" did have prior cards done and even the main cast has a lot of autograph cards out there already from other makers. There might not be any scarce big names left to carry the price.

"Taxi" would be more interesting, but the problem there is that a couple of main stars have passed on and some others don't sign cards. Carol Kane will be on board, but I really can't remember if there were many popular guest stars. I don't think Danny DeVito has been gotten yet.

Now I've been on RA website and noticed something about the "Ask Steve Charendoff" thread. The last time he answered a post was in the beginning of January. One post from him in all of 2026 so far. So is Steve Charendoff still doing what he was doing at RA?

If anyone knows anything about new licenses for "Taxi" and "Happy Days", or the whereabouts of Charendoff, have at it. This is the rumors section after all.

Danny De Vito signed for Topps Batman: The Animated Series 2 set (it was a Stadium Club photo card of him as The Penguin) only 200 made if I remember correctly? It was my first “great” pull back in the day.

You are correct, but according to Jeff Allender's Checklists the number done was 2000. The reason I never liked that card was because it doesn't say it was ever certified. It is just the regular base card #2 from the Batman Returns Stadium set of 1992 with his signature that they released in another product. All the cards seem to be signed in silver, in exactly the same place.

It's one of those autograph cards that require separate third-party authentication to prove it's genuine if you try to sell it to someone else because only the puller knows for sure. DeVito would be a big signer if RA could get him for "Taxi" on one of their certified autograph card designs. Not sure if he would though, Rhea Perlman hasn't done "Cheers" yet.

At the Philly show RA had a sign on their table for upcoming releases and that's where I saw Happy Days and Taxi mentioned.
