1997 Mariners Upper Deck Pepsi
Description
Upper Deck created two team sets for the Seattle Mariners in 1997 in association with Pepsi. One set of 19 cards were inserted into specially-marked 12-packs of Pepsi Cola products in the Pacific Northwest. The other set is a 21-card set that was given away at a Mariners game.
Both sets look nearly identical, as they both take the 1997 Upper Deck design and replace the copper-foil "strip" on the front and replace it with blue. The checklists are nearly the same.
Cards given away at the game are sequentially-numbered with a "P" prefix; while those inserted into Pepsi 12-packs have a "M" prefix.
