Key Features
Logo Swap/SSP (Super Short Print) variation; rare pull from 2024 flagship packs. Features the Arizona Diamondbacks team logo in a distinct graphic box at the bottom left, differing from the standard base card layout.

Flaws to Note
Slight right-to-left centering bias on the front border. Horizontal alignment seems good. Potential for minor edge chipping common in 2024 white-border stock.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this card due to its rarity and specific appeal to variation hunters. Comc.com is also a good secondary option for long-tail sales to set builders.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless you are confident in a PSA 10, as grading costs will exceed the value of a raw or PSA 9 copy. Use keywords like 'Logo Swap', 'SSP', 'Variation', and 'Diamondbacks' in your listing title. Ship in a penny sleeve and top-loader inside a bubble mailer for protection.
