Notes

SET-scope parallel of the "Freshman Signatures" set. tcdb states Total Cards "29" on this sid's own header. SERIAL TOKENS ENUMERATED, NOT SAMPLED - the distinct token set across all 29 rendered rows of this sid is {AU, SN149} on all 29 rendered rows. tcdb set: https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/167509/2017-18-Panini-Status---Freshman-Signatures-Pink?PageIndex=1&sort=0 ROSTER-COUNT DIVERGENCE: sportscardchecklist.com lists this tier at 28 cards against tcdb's 29 (https://www.sportscardchecklist.com/sport-basketball/year-2017-18/index-panini-status/trading-card-checklists-and-product-information); tcdb's figure is the one its own rendered rows support and is the one recorded here in prose. parallels.csv carries no roster-count column, so neither figure is written as a value. cardboardconnection independently prints "Freshman Signatures: 29 cards with Pink #/149, Gold #/10 parallels" (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2017-18-panini-status-basketball-nba-cards), giving the figure two independent legs (an editorial statement and tcdb's own row-level sweep). CHANNEL: the ONLY channel statement any source consulted makes about this product is cardboardconnection's "2017-18 Panini Status Basketball enters the NBA card mix with one signed card in every hobby box." That places the product IN hobby boxes; it does not assert hobby EXCLUSIVITY, so channel_basis is `sourced-presence`, not `sourced-exclusive` (caveats.csv CAV-010). No source states a channel for this tier specifically. NOTHING WAS CARRIED ACROSS A SEASON BOUNDARY: status-bkb-2018-19 is retail-only and status-bkb-2019-20 is Asia-exclusive, and neither was used here. NO RETAILER SPLIT EXISTS IN 2017-18: the words Walmart, Target, blaster, hanger, fat pack, mega, retail and exclusive appear nowhere on cardboardconnection's 2017-18 page (checked by a second differently-parameterised fetch), nowhere on gogts.net (https://gogts.net/2017-18-panini-status-nba-basketball-cards-checklist/) and nowhere on breakninja (https://www.breakninja.com/17-18-Panini-Status-Basketball-Checklist.html) - so the 2018-19 Walmart-only / Target-only axis has no 2017-18 counterpart and channel_sku is empty on every row. MARKETPLACE CORROBORATION, REQUIRED BEFORE WRITING A PLAIN INTEGER ONTO AN AUTOGRAPH SET (EXTRACTION_SPEC 3.4), AND OBTAINED: three independent free-text listing titles carry a serial off a card in hand - "2017 Panini Status Freshman Signatures Pink 132/149 TJ Leaf Rookie Auto RC" (https://www.ebay.com/itm/336731984487), "De'Aaron Fox Auto 2017-18 Panini Status Freshman Signatures #FS-DFG Pink /149" (https://www.ebay.com/itm/327181456379) and Pristine Auction's "Jayson Tatum 2017-18 Panini Status Freshman Signatures Pink #3 RC #077/149" (https://www.pristineauction.com/a8274616-Jayson-Tatum-2017-18-Panini-Status-Freshman-Signatures-Pink-3-RC-077149). None carries a tcdb flag string verbatim (tcdb renders SN149, not "/149"), so the contamination fingerprint test passes on all three. The FS- code prefix also matches the prefix seen on tcdb's own rows.
