Beckett lists the parallels of this set as being the same #1-140 as base, but I don't see any copies of Ticket to the Pros Executive Decision #130-140 (the ones signed by coaches or front office members instead of the players) on COMC, ebay or anywhere else. Can anyone confirm these exist, or do we need to remove them from the checklists? They would look like this base one below but would be SN10/25/50/75/100 instead of SN200.

Here is #132 Devin Harris / Don Nelson SN25 [1]. Also #139 Dorell Wright / Pat Riley sold on eBay around 3 years ago SN17. Some others (sold out) via COMC [3].

Thanks! I missed the COMC ones because I was checking under the parallel name. Just wanted to make sure they existed before making the updates to match base.

Are all the Mezzanine ones SN17 or just a few?

I'm an avid Authentix collector. The issue with this set is that they aren't listed as "executive decisions". On the Beckett site they're just listed as regular auto cards in the set, #'s 130-140 (and also list the print run #/200 but clearly that isn't correct either).

Likely only a few, since here is #140 Trevor Ariza / Isiah Thomas SN50 [1]. COMC has a lot of them mixed up because that one is listed under "Mezzanine" where the previous COMC link I posted had them under "Executive Decision".

It's a subset of base and they're all SN200. I don't see any issue there.

What's weird about the Beckett listings is they don't use "Balcony", "Club Box", etc., but instead call them "Parallel 100", "Parallel 50", etc.
