Why This Card Matters

Alek Manoah was Toronto's **first-round pick, 11th overall, in 2019 out of West Virginia**, and he debuted in May 2021 by throwing six scoreless innings against the Yankees. His 2022 was the real thing: **16-4 with a 2.24 ERA and 180 strikeouts over 196.2 innings**, an All-Star selection and a **third-place finish in AL Cy Young voting**. This is his base card in 2023 Topps Allen & Ginter, the annual set built on hand-painted portrait art and Victorian tobacco-card design.

Two Things to Know

**First — the script across his forearm is a tattoo, not a signature.** In Allen & Ginter's painted-portrait style it reads at a glance like a facsimile autograph and gets miscatalogued that way constantly. It is neither a real autograph nor a printed facsimile; it is part of the photograph. This card is not autographed. **Second — this is the full-size base card**, not a mini. Allen & Ginter's minis are a separate, smaller format with their own back variations (A&G Back, Black Border, Brooklyn Back) and they price differently. Cream matte stock with visible paper tooth, no foil, no black border, not the glossy hot-box Silver Portrait. Back code CMP063676.
