So here's something interesting I just noticed. I know we were talking about the 02 SB Auto/Relic card a few days ago and looking at the streaky/faded autos. It appeared (then) that the black pen was used for the lower serials before he switched to blue, but I just saw this:

Blue auto #12, still a little streaky, but not as faded as this one:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2002-SP-Top...YAAOSwbWZaalIC

Black auto #18.

Seems interesting, maybe blue for jersey #? But why would that even matter to them/him. Did they save the #12 auto for the end? Seems these were just kinda all over the place.

Edit: here's another blue early serial #

Here's a thought: Maybe the cards were numbered back at corporate after they were all already signed, and there is no rhyme or reason to pen color relative to card number...?
