Although much of the attention for the product comes from the creative sketch cards, the 2005 Inkworks Family Guy Season 1 Autographs lineup isn’t bad either.
Highlighted by the show’s creator and voice of Stewie, Seth McFarlane, there are six autographs in the set. Other signers include Alex Borstein (Lois) and Mike Henry (Cleveland). Fans of the show CHiPs have an Erik Estrada autograph to chase.
Although odds for the autographs were never released by Inkworks, they’re not very tough to pull. It seems that more than half of Season 1 boxes have one. They’re just not a guarantee like sketch cards are supposed to be. Also be warned that the McFarlane and Estrada autographs are both inserted in packs as redemptions. With Inkworks long out of business, there’s no hope of getting these outside of the secondary market now.
Save for McFarlane, all of the 2005 Inkworks Family Guy Season 1 Autographs are very affordable. McFarlane, on the other hand, is one of the most valuable entertainment trading cards of the 2000’s first decade. Besides his popularity, it’s also a major short print and significantly tougher to find versus other cards in the set.
