Demand Level

Description
This is a 2024 Topps series 2 base parallel featuring Max Kepler in his Philadelphia Phillies uniform. The card distinguishes itself with a unique orange background filled with pumpkin/jack-o-lantern icons, themed for the Halloween season. These were released in retail-exclusive 'Trick-or-Treat' packs.
Key Features
Holiday-themed retail parallel; Max Kepler in a Phillies jersey; clean visual aesthetic and fun seasonal variation.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. Card stock shows correct gloss/thickness for 2024 Topps flagship. Holographic quality of the Topps logo and precise printing of the jack-o-lantern pattern are consistent with authentic retail parallels.
Flaws to Note
A slight right-to-left centering bias is visible. Small white speck on the top-left edge may be a minor chipping defect from the factory cut.

Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless you are a Max Kepler super-collector, as grading fees will exceed the card's value. List as a 'Buy It Now' with the keyword 'Halloween Parallel' or 'Pumpkin' to attract set builders and Phillies team collectors.
