Press Release — R-2026-0001

Issued January 2026

Diné, Janeth & Fandleran Reliquary announces the formal archival documentation of an unreleased trading card artifact: the 2010 SP Authentic Baseball Chirography on-card autograph of Evan Longoria, serial-numbered 09/15.

The card originates from a documented but commercially unreleased Upper Deck SP Authentic Baseball production run that was canceled prior to distribution following Upper Deck’s 2010 licensing disruption. Despite cancellation, a limited number of Chirography autograph cards were fully manufactured, serial-numbered, and signed before production ceased. These cards were never released through retail or pack-pulled channels and therefore exist outside conventional hobby distribution.

As of this release, only three surviving examples of the Evan Longoria Chirography issue have been confirmed: serials #07/15, #09/15, and #13/15.

The subject card was authenticated and autograph-graded by PSA / PSA-DNA, receiving a GEM MT 10 autograph grade. Numeric grading of the card itself was declined under PSA Reason Code N9, reflecting policy restrictions applicable to unreleased or non-checklisted production material. The card was not reholdered, no new certification number was issued, and the original PSA certification (#84111795) remains intact.

The Reliquary acquired the artifact on November 28, 2025, and subsequently commissioned a controlled post-acquisition PSA review to explore dual grading eligibility. The card was returned to Reliquary custody on January 30, 2026, maintaining an uninterrupted chain of custody throughout the process.

Notably, no Evan Longoria SP Authentic Chirography card surfaced publicly for approximately fourteen years following the 2010 production halt. The first known public appearance of any example occurred in December 2024, when serial #07/15 was displayed via an online post. A second example, serial #13/15, appeared in November 2025 as an eBay listing represented only by a stock image.

The prolonged market absence of these cards—despite the active circulation of other 2010 Upper Deck baseball products—strongly supports the conclusion that the Chirography issue was never released, never distributed, and never absorbed into the secondary market.

The Evan Longoria Chirography #09/15 is formally recorded as part of the Diné, Janeth & Fandleran Reliquary permanent collection, accompanied by a complete provenance packet documenting its production context, certification lineage, and archival significance.

This notice constitutes the official public record for Release R-2026-0001.
