Need some info on unopened 1993 Ted Williams baseball

[sportscardtheory]

Do these packs/boxes/cases have the serial-numbered Ted Williams Locklear subset autos inserted? Beckett is vague about whether or not they are actually inserted into the packs. Thanks for any info.

Box "back" shows the same:

Jumbo box top:

I can't find a picture of the jumbo pack.
If the auto was in this, it wasn't advertised.

Do the autos still have the machine number that is on the regular versions of that set? As in, is there a way looking at the back to tell the two apart, so you can know the difference between a regular one and the auto version and not a regular one with IP auto?

The difference is the first serial-numbered 1 to 406 were all autographed. So any beyond serial-number 406 shouldn't be autographed. I read online that that is how you know it's "authenticated". I'm pretty sure they were inserted, just wanted to have it verified somehow. A lot of inserted autos up to 1993 weren't explicitly mentioned on any packaging. I think they didn't mention the auto specifically because it's essentially part of the Locklear insert set, which is mentioned in the insert odds. It would also be nice to know if the Williams auto was also inserted into the retail jumbo packs along with the Brooks Robinson autos, or if they are just in the hobby packs (if they are at all).
