About 2018 Star Wars A New Hope Black & White
2018 Topps Star Wars A New Hope Black & White overview, key cards and what collectors chase
2018 Topps Star Wars A New Hope Black & White: the 1977 film retold in 140 full-bleed black-and-white cards, with one autograph or sketch card per hobby box
2018 Topps Star Wars A New Hope Black & White follows Episode IV scene by scene, from the battle on the Tantive IV to the closing celebration. The hobby-only set uses black-and-white film stills with a small Star Wars logo, and its parallels add a color tint to the whole card.
What's in the checklist
- Base: 140 cards with Sepia (1:2), Blue (1:4), Green /99, Purple /25, Red /10 and Metal 1/1 parallels
- Inserts: Behind the Scenes (41), Concept Art (12), Poster Cards (12) and Iconic Characters (12)
- Autographs: 20 black-and-white autographs with Blue /99, Green /25, Purple /10 and Red 1/1 parallels, 11 short-printed color autographs, 6 dual and 4 triple autographs
- Six-Person Autograph: a double-sided 1/1 signed by Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker and Anthony Daniels
Key subjects
Signers include Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker and Peter Mayhew. Sketch cards come in regular, die-cut and panorama formats, but no sketch artist list was published.
Grading considerations
The Ford, Hamill and Fisher autographs, the short-printed color autographs and the low-numbered parallels are the strongest grading candidates. Full-bleed black-and-white images show edge wear and print defects clearly, so check them closely before you submit.
