Frequently asked

What makes 2019-20 Leaf Ultimate Hockey different from regular Leaf releases?
This is a high-end, autograph and memorabilia-only product. There are no base cards. Every single card in the box is a premium hit, either an autograph or a relic, making it one of the priciest Leaf releases per box.
What are the key autograph sets to chase?
Ultimate Signatures is the main line, with versions ranging from single-signed up to eight-signature cards. One-Timer Auto Shield is the rarest, featuring fifteen one-of-one cards with NHL Shields paired with autographs from legends like Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky. Ultimate Auto Memorabilia combines autographs with jumbo patches.
What's the deal with One-Timer Memorabilia?
These are eighty different one-of-one jumbo patch cards, each featuring a different player from hockey history. They're the biggest memorabilia cards in the product and highly sought after by collectors hunting specific players.
What are the Pioneers 4 and The Fabled Four cards?
Pioneers 4 honors the sport's early builders with multi-swatch relics and spectrum foil parallels. The Fabled Four features four-player relic combinations of all-time greats. Both have numbered parallels ranging from /2 to /20 depending on the version.
What's Q Numerology and why is it special?
Q Numerology is a new insert that combines an autograph with a die-cut memorabilia swatch. The print run is numbered to match the player's jersey number, so a Bobby Hull card might be /9 or a Joe Sakic card /19. It's a unique way to tie the card to the player's identity.
Are there parallels and how rare are they?
