557 Mike Darr SR
+
This 35-card parallel set captures a selection of players taken from each of the three series of 1998 Upper Deck. Besides the obvious difference in size, these cards also lack the foil stamping on front that the standard 2 1/2" by 3 1/2" cards have. The first fifteen cards checklisted below comprise the Series One Blow Up set. These first series jumbo cards were available only via redemption from Upper Deck. Collector's had to send in ten first series wrappers plus $3 to the UD redemption center.
  
558 Kerry Wood SR
+
The next ten cards checklisted below comprise the Series Two 5 x 7 Blow Up set. These second series jumbo cards were available only in specially marked mass market retail Series Two Blaster boxes (carrying an $11.99 SRP). Each box contained five Series Two packs and one 5 x 7 Blow Up.
  
559 Carlos Guillen SR
+
The third series 5 x 7 Blow Ups (numbered between 605 and 620 in the listings below) are comprised of selected stars from the Eminent Prestige subset within the Rookie Edition set.

This 56-card set commemorates each of Ken Griffey Jr.'s American League leading 56 home runs from his 1997 season. The first 30 cards were randomly inserted into Series One packs, while cards 31-56 were in Series Two.  The design is identical to that of the 10th Anniversary Preview inserts.  Each card is notated on the back with what date each homer was hit. Series Two cards feature photos from the actual games in which the homers were hit.

Randomly inserted in Series One packs, this 60-card set features a design similar to the inaugural 1989 Upper Deck series. The backs carry a photo of a previous Upper Deck card of that player. A 10th Anniversary Ballot was inserted into every fourth Series One pack which allowed the collector to vote for the players they wanted to see in a proposed 1999 Upper Deck tenth anniversary set.  The set was canceled, and instead became an insert in [[1999 Upper Deck]] Series One.

In an effort to premier their new Power Deck Audio technology, Upper Deck created three special Ken Griffey, Jr. "cards" (blue, green and silver backgrounds).  Each "card" was actually a die-cut audio CD that contained the same five minute interview with the Mariner's superstar. These "cards" were randomly seeded exclusively into specially marked Series One Hobby boxes, comprising only 10 percent of the print run. The seeding ratios are as follows: blue 1:8, green 1:100 and silver 1:2400. Each test issue box contained a clear CD disc for which the card could be placed upon for playing on any common CD player. To play the card, the center hole had to be punched out.

Description

1998 Upper Deck is a 751-card set issued in three series of 270, 270 and 211 cards. The third series is officially known as the "Rookie Edition." As a unique addition, each card fronts features game dated photographs of some of the season's most memorable moments.

The following subsets are contained within the set: History in the Making (1-8/361-369), Griffey's Hot List (9-18), Define the Game (136-153), Season Highlights (244-252/532-540/748-750), Star Rookies (253-288/541-600), Postseason Headliners (415-432), Upper Echelon (451-459) and Eminent Prestige (601-630). The Eminent Prestige subset cards were unintentionally short-printed (approximately 1:4 packs) and Upper Deck offered a free service to collectors trying to finish their sets whereby 18 random Eminent Prestige cards were mailed to collectors who sent in proof of purchase of one-and-a-half Rookie Edition boxes.

There are two different versions of 681. About half the cards depict Mike Piazza as a New York Met while the other half commemorate Piazza's one week stint as a Florida Marlin. The Rookie Edition Series set is considered complete with both versions.

Notable Rookie Cards include Gabe Kapler and Magglio Ordonez.

Distribution

24 packs per box, 12 cards per pack (MSRP: $1.99).

Parallels

5 X 7 Blow-Ups

This 35-card parallel set captures a selection of players taken from each of the three series of 1998 Upper Deck. Besides the obvious difference in size, these cards also lack the foil stamping on front that the standard 2 1/2" by 3 1/2" cards have. The first fifteen cards checklisted below comprise the Series One Blow Up set. These first series jumbo cards were available only via redemption from Upper Deck. Collector's had to send in ten first series wrappers plus $3 to the UD redemption center.

The next ten cards checklisted below comprise the Series Two 5 x 7 Blow Up set. These second series jumbo cards were available only in specially marked mass market retail Series Two Blaster boxes (carrying an $11.99 SRP). Each box contained five Series Two packs and one 5 x 7 Blow Up.

The third series 5 x 7 Blow Ups (numbered between 605 and 620 in the listings below) are comprised of selected stars from the Eminent Prestige subset within the Rookie Edition set.

Griffey's Home Run Chronicles

Ken-Griffey-Jr.jpg?id=a8f7d489-f997-4efe-8a21-b69cbb6d7ec7&size=original&side=front&.jpg Ken-Griffey-Jr.jpg?id=a8f7d489-f997-4efe-8a21-b69cbb6d7ec7&size=original&side=back&.jpg

This 56-card set commemorates each of Ken Griffey Jr.'s American League leading 56 home runs from his 1997 season. The first 30 cards were randomly inserted into Series One packs, while cards 31-56 were in Series Two. The design is identical to that of the 10th Anniversary Preview inserts. Each card is notated on the back with what date each homer was hit. Series Two cards feature photos from the actual games in which the homers were hit.

For brevity's sake, since all cards feature Ken Griffey, Jr. we have chosen not to list each individual card.

10th Anniversary Preview

Omar-Vizquel.jpg?id=87600493-0941-4866-8512-e375cfdac0ba&size=original&side=front&.jpg Omar-Vizquel.jpg?id=87600493-0941-4866-8512-e375cfdac0ba&size=original&side=back&.jpg

Randomly inserted in Series One packs, this 60-card set features a design similar to the inaugural 1989 Upper Deck series. The backs carry a photo of a previous Upper Deck card of that player. A 10th Anniversary Ballot was inserted into every fourth Series One pack which allowed the collector to vote for the players they wanted to see in a proposed 1999 Upper Deck tenth anniversary set. The set was canceled, and instead became an insert in 1999 Upper Deck Series One.

Upper Deck also released a "Preview Edition" factory set to selected retail outlets. The Preview Edition contained a complete set of all 60 10th Anniversary cards, as well as 200 randomly selected 1997 Collector's Choice base cards and sold for $19.99. The difference between the two sets are the words "PREVIEW EDITION" printed on the side of each card.

Power Deck

In an effort to premier their new Power Deck Audio technology, Upper Deck created three special Ken Griffey, Jr. "cards" (blue, green and silver backgrounds). Each "card" was actually a die-cut audio CD that contained the same five minute interview with the Mariner's superstar. These "cards" were randomly seeded exclusively into specially marked Series One Hobby boxes, comprising only 10 percent of the print run. The seeding ratios are as follows: blue 1:8, green 1:100 and silver 1:2400. Each test issue box contained a clear CD disc for which the card could be placed upon for playing on any common CD player. To play the card, the center hole had to be punched out.

  • 1 Ken Griffey, Jr. BLUE
  • 2 Ken Griffey, Jr. GREEN
  • 3 Ken Griffey, Jr. SILVER
