This is a Paper autograph sticker for erkaSt, representing Grayhound Gaming from the 2019 IEM Katowice set. It is the signature type rather than a team or community decal, pulled from the Katowice 2019 Minor Challengers Autograph Capsule and released by Valve on February 6th, 2019.
The sticker carries the Paper film, which sits at the base of the finish ladder for its set. Above Paper you would find the premium films; Paper is the standard stock that most collectors start with and compare other finishes against.
This is a budget-tier piece within its capsule lineup, reflecting its position among peers in the same set. That means it is an accessible autograph for collectors building a Katowice 2019 run or assembling Grayhound signatures without chasing premium finishes.
The autograph belongs to erkaSt and ties the sticker directly to his time with Grayhound Gaming. Full provenance is present, which helps collectors who prioritize authenticated player signatures over unsigned or unproven stock.
It was released in the Katowice 2019 Minor Challengers Autograph Capsule, which groups similar challenger autographs from that event. That origin places it alongside other Minor Challengers signatures from the same drop and defines the sibling set collectors compare it against.
Applied stickers are an irreversible mechanic: once placed and subsequently scraped the film becomes thinner, and removing a sticker destroys the applied copy. Every craft or sticker operation consumes a fresh sticker from your inventory, so clean, unapplied stock only gets scarcer over time.
The sticker carries a High Grade rarity designation within the sticker grading ladder. That grade puts it above base commons in collector hierarchy but below the highest echelons reserved for the rarest drops.
Paper autographs like this are commonly used for economical crafts where the signature is the focus rather than a premium finish glow. Collectors will mount this on weapons where the autograph reads clearly; clean stock for precise placement matters because applied copies cannot be restored.
This piece comes from the 2019 IEM Katowice release window and belongs to the Katowice 2019 Minor Challengers Autograph Capsule era of drops. Its standing is tied to that event drop and the roster snapshots Valve immortalized on that capsule.
