I believe spotlights Autos are the strong selling points for Noir. I scratch my head when I see the numbering of them got triple/ quadruple this year. Besides the perplexing serial number, has anyone notice the background of all spotlight Autos?

Wow, that's weird (and a very got spot!). Are there many examples of cards in this set without Nuggets players in the background?

I'm wondering if Panini struck a good deal with a Nuggets photographer for his photos.

They appear to all be at the Pepsi Center in Denver, too. I'm guessing they bought the photos from a Denver based photographer? Super interesting and nice catch!

Very good eye. Reminds me of the 1970s Topps basketball cards. All feature the Washington Bullets.....and I swear every card background has Wes Unseld somewhere on it. It's creepy.

The only examples without Denver players I saw were Kobe / Durant as they are solitary in the picture

This is what I speculate after seeing most of players got pulled on the checklist

good catch!
i once read about 86-87 fleer that the photographer was LA based, that explains that the majority in that set features Lakers and Clippers in the background

Yah obviously they camped out at Denver games for card shots. Great eye!
