✍️ Autograph Authentication Crown Verified
This 2024 Topps Garbage Pail Kids: Trashin' Through Time Issue Four promotional card (card 3 of 4, Dynamite Entertainment under Topps license) was issued by the manufacturer as an artist-signed card: the signature of credited artist David Ascevedo was applied to the reverse as part of the card's production, not added after release. The autograph is rendered in purple marker, placed centrally over the white text panel on the card back, with a confident, fluid cursive execution, a prominent sweeping initial stroke, and a looping terminal flourish consistent with Ascevedo's hand. Because the signing was performed and verified by Topps at issue, the manufacturer's certification stands as primary provenance; the Crown Grading authentication team has additionally examined the ink medium, placement, and letter formation and independently confirms the signature as genuine.
Card Notes
Garbage Pail Kids debuted in 1985 as a satirical parody of Topps' Cabbage Patch Kids-era trading cards, and the franchise has rolled on ever since, shifting its gross-out humor across decades of new series, promotions, and crossover releases. Its anarchic spirit made it a favorite of collectors who came of age with the original stickers, and each new set is read as a conversation with that history. Trashin' Through Time continues the tradition by sending the gang across eras, pairing the familiar rot-and-slime sensibility with fresh time-travel gags that reward close looking. This Issue #4 card, numbered 3 in the set, carries a signature from David Ascevedo, a detail that gives it a personal connection to the artist's hand. Collectors seek autographed promotional cards like this one for the way they bridge the printed product and the person who helped shape its look. Its place within the promo run makes it a distinctive entry in the set's checklist.
