Superfractor 1/1 is one of 75 card types scored in The Card Investor, filed under autographs.

With appreciation at 95 and liquidity at 60, this sits in the ordinary range on both axes. Those are the entries where the reasoning matters more than the scores.

Accessibility of 2 is the catch. That score tracks whether you can buy near MSRP or you're already paying a premium to someone else, and at 2 you are paying up. A card with real upside bought at double MSRP is a worse purchase than an ordinary one bought at retail.

Set against the 10 autograph card types scored here, its appreciation of 95 ranks 2nd of 10, liquidity 60 ranks 8th, accessibility 2 ranks 10th, and risk 15 is the 2nd-lowest. The closest thing to it on the numbers is Vintage Rookie Autos (Pre-2015), which scores 94 and 72 on the same two axes — if you're weighing one against the other, the difference is in the reasoning rather than the scores.

Five years or more is a patience bet. Over that span the specific reasoning below matters less than whether the underlying thing stays desirable, and the honest position is that nobody knows what the hobby looks like in 2031. Size it accordingly.

At 15, this is one of the calmer entries in here. Read that as relative: the floor under any card is whatever the next person will pay, and that number can move a long way in a month.

How to read these four numbers

Every entry gets four separate scores instead of one grade, because a single grade hides the thing you needed. Full explanation in the guide: what Kabooms, Downtowns and Color Blasts are worth.
