Description
2024 Onyx Vintage Baseball prospect card featuring a crisp, on-card blue ink autograph of UCLA standout Roch Cholowsky. The card features a retro-inspired design with a gold/tan border, a high-quality portrait of the shortstop in a white and maroon jersey, and the 'Onyx Authentic Autograph' guarantee below the signature.
Key Features
On-card signature (not a sticker); High-ceiling MLB prospect/UCLA star; Retro aesthetic; Onyx is a popular niche brand for early prospect autographs.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The on-card ink shows natural flow and absorption into the card stock. The Onyx security logo and specific font weights match known 2024 production runs. These are rarely counterfeited due to the high cost of replicating the specific matte card stock and the available supply.
Flaws to Note
Centering is roughly 60/40 toward the left/bottom. There is a visible glare on the top loader, but potential buyers should check for micro-scratching on the matte surface of the card, which is common for this set.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the primary market for this card. COMC is a good secondary option for 'list and forget' selling. For immediate cash, prospect-specific Facebook groups (e.g., 'Bowman & Prospect Cards') can be effective.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless you are certain it is a PSA 10, as the grading fee often exceeds the raw value. When listing, use keywords like 'UCLA', 'Shortstop', 'On-Card Auto', and 'Draft Prospect'. Take a photo out of the top-loader to show the surface clarity.
