AUTOGRAPH SET, and the release's largest. Enumerated by a FULL-ROW token sweep, never a sample, per CAV-050: every rendered row's flag column was read and the DISTINCT token set recorded. THE SET'S OWN BASE TIER IS SERIAL NUMBERED WITH A PER-CARD VARIABLE RUN AND CARRIES NO SINGLE PRINT RUN: over all 44 rows tcdb renders https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/153308/2016-17-Panini-Studio-Studio-Signatures?sort=0 the distinct token set is AU plus {SN299, SN249, SN199, SN175, SN165, SN125, SN99, SN60, SN49} - nine distinct serial tokens. A three-row sample would have written a flat 299 on a tier whose rows run from 49 to 299. Recorded in words here and in gap G-007. AN EXCH ROW EXISTS AND IS RECORDED RATHER THAN DROPPED: card 31 A.J. Hammons renders "AU, EXCH, SN299", and the same EXCH appears on his row in the Magenta parallel (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/153310/2016-17-Panini-Studio-Studio-Signatures-Magenta?sort=0). CARD COUNT CONTESTED, HIGHER FIGURE WRITTEN: tcdb states "Total Cards: 44" and renders 44 rows over 1-18 and 20-45, omitting card 19; cardboardconnection states "45 cards." (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2016-17-panini-studio-basketball-cards). Per CAV-044, https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/153309/2016-17-Panini-Studio-Studio-Signatures-Gold?sort=0 states "Total Cards: 45" and renders all forty-five numbers 1-45 INCLUDING card 19 Kevin Durant. See gap G-008. Listed on https://www.tcdb.com/Inserts.cfm/sid/150641/2016-17-Panini-Studio under the heading "Insert Sets (30)", whose own count matched my count of its rows.
