Spearow is card #62/64 in the 1999 Pokemon Jungle set (Common). It was printed in 1st Edition and Unlimited. PSA has graded about 3,404 copies across its printings.
Print variants & how to tell them apart
1st Edition
The black 'Edition 1' stamp — a circle containing the number 1 — sits just left of the artwork, below the art box. Jungle has no shadowless printing, so a 1st Edition card is otherwise identical to Unlimited (same drop shadow, same set symbol). The first and smallest print run; commands a premium.
Unlimited
No stamp. The standard and by far the most common Jungle printing, with the set symbol (a rafflesia-like flower) in the lower-right of the art box. The only tell vs 1st Edition is the missing stamp — both have the drop shadow and the set symbol.

Market values are live TCGplayer prices for each printing. A dash means TCGplayer has no separate or active listing for that variant (e.g. the No Symbol error). As an eBay Partner & affiliate we may earn from qualifying purchases.
Jungle cards come in two editions: 1st Edition (a black 'Edition 1' stamp left of the art box) and Unlimited (no stamp; the standard, most common printing). Both carry the drop shadow and the rafflesia set symbol -- the only tell between them is the stamp (Jungle has no Shadowless or 1999-2000 printing). The 16 holo rares also exist as the famous No Set Symbol error: an early Unlimited holo run that is missing the set symbol in the lower-right of the art box.
