These will all have Gold (/50), Orange (/25), Red (/5) and 1/1 Superfractor parallels. Rarer pulls will be die-cut Game Set Match cards (one in 10 cases), Toppspin (one in five cases), Patriotic Pride (one in slightly under three cases) and Let's Go (one in three cases) with no parallels announced. ... There will be six autographed sets to grab here with one group of base parallels as Autos I and another rarer group as Autos II -- those breakdowns are also in the gallery. Joining them will be image variation autos the will have the same parallels and volumes as the II autos. Also in play will be Aces with Refractor (/99), Gold (/50), Orange (/25), Red (/5) and 1/1 Supers as well as Served! Signatures (/25) that will only have Supers along with dual-auto cards (/25) with Black (/10), Red (/5) and 1/1 Supers. ... Among the autos will be Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka, Venus Williams, Andy Roddick, Andy Murray, John MceEnroe, Steffi Graf, Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Martina Navratilova and Coco Gauff.
