2010 Upper Deck

=Description=

2010 Upper Deck Baseball is a 600-card set released the first week of February, 2010. In August 2009, Topps was named Major League Baseball Properties' (MLBP) exclusive trading card licensee for 2010 and beyond. Upper Deck (who had extended their license with the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) earlier in 2009) announced that, despite losing their MLBP license, they had no intention of exiting the baseball card market. As 2009 turned to 2010 UD was tight-lipped as to their plans for baseball, only announcing that MLBPA-licensed products would continue to be released in 2010.

In late January 2010, Upper Deck released their first partially-licensed products: [[2009 Ultimate Collection | "2009" Ultimate Collection]] and [[2009 UD Signature Stars | "2009" UD Signature Stars]]. ''2010 Upper Deck Baseball Series One'' would follow suit in early February. All three products continued to depict MLBPA players in MLBP uniforms -- albeit with team logos strategically concealed. For continuing to depict MLB players in uniform, UD was shortly thereafter sued by MLBP and Topps for copyright infringement.

''2010 Upper Deck Baseball Wave 2'', was scheduled for release (exclusive to retail outlets) May 4, 2010. Wave 2 was to have 50 additional cards in the set, #601-650, along with a selection of cards from the 600-card Series 1 set -- similar to the "High-Number" packs from Upper Deck's early years. However, on March 3, 2010, as part of a settlement with Major League Baseball Properties, Upper Deck agreed not to release any baseball card products currently in development -- to include [[2010 SP Authentic]], [[2010 SPx]], and [[2010 Upper Deck Goudey]]. Wave 2 was never released.

The settlement with MLBP allowed Upper Deck to sell any excess 2010 Upper Deck inventory. As such, this set is considered authorized and licensed by BOTH MLBP and the MLBPA, and the rookie cards are "true."

=Distribution=

Retail: 18 cards per pack, (MSRP: $3)

Hobby: 20 cards per pack, 16 packs per Hobby box, (MSRP: $5)

Fat Packs: 36 cards per pack, (MSRP: $5)

Blasters: 10 packs of eight cards per Blaster, (MSRP: $19.99)

NOTE: Despite Series Two never being issued, all packs and boxes are labelled "2010 Upper Deck Series One."

====Wave 2====

Wave 2 was to have been a 50-card retail-exclusive extension on the base set, and was scheduled to hit store shelves in May, 2010. However, on March 3, 2010, as part of a settlement with Major League Baseball Properties, Upper Deck agreed not to release any future baseball card products -- to include 2010 Upper Deck Wave 2.

====Variations, Gimmicks, and Errors====

=====Double-Take=====
[[File:2010uddoubletakerivera.jpg|right|300px|thumb|2010 Upper Deck #350 Mariano Rivera & 2010 Upper Deck Double Take Variation #350 Mariano Rivera]]
[[Image:2010ud-pasada.jpg|right|frame|2010 Upper Deck #347 Jorge Posada Double-Take]]

25 base cards have scarce "Double-Take" variations. Double-Take's feature between two and four subtle tweaks to the image shown on the commonly seeded version of the card. Beginning in February, 2010 each week Upper Deck was to have revealed the existence of a new Double-Take card. On March 5, 2010, two days after settling their lawsuit with MLB Properties, Upper Deck released a checklist of all 25 variants; however since then, they've ceased to announce what the tweaks on each card are. Any assistance in identifying the unknown tweaks would be greatly appreciated.

The 25 card set is fractured into four levels: Common (C), Rare (R), Super Rare (SR), and Ultra Rare (UR). Common being the least scarce and Ultra Rare being the most scarce. Each card's level is designated in the checklist.

The first five collectors who completed a full set of 25 Double-Take's, were to receive a collection of autographed Upper Deck Authenticated memorabilia. But with the lawsuit settlement it is unknown if this promotion is still valid.

'''Note:''' The state odds of finding a Double-Take variation card are 1:96 Hobby packs and 1:960 retail packs.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2010) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Double Take')
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>

=====Retail-Exclusive Gimmicks=====

These four cards were randomly inserted into retail [[Loosey | looseys]], and were not acknowledged by Upper Deck until almost a month after the product's release. Cards R1 and R4 are exclusive to Wal-Mart packs, while R2 and R3 are exclusive to Target packs. Although Upper Deck never announced the insertion ratios, it appears that Target-exclusive cards were tougher to pull than the Wal-Mart cards.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2010) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Gimmicks')

===Exquisite===

===Supreme===
[[Image:2010 Upper Deck Supreme S64.jpg|right|200px|Green S64 - Dexter Fowler]]

This retail-exclusive insert was available in Blue and Green versions, with the Blues (1:27/packs) tougher to find than the Greens (1:8). Initially a third version (Red) was to have been included (at the rate of 1:100/packs) in the now-canceled Wave 2 release. It was initially announced by Upper Deck that the Green Supreme's would be serial-numbered to 100 copies, but this appears not to be the case.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2010) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Supreme Green');

These cards were to have been inserted into Fat Packs of the canceled Wave 2. The checklist was never revealed.

====Diamond Sparkle Gimmicks (Twinks)====

'''NOTE:''' What appears to be a "sparkle" on the brim of Domonic Brown's helmet (card #421), is a naturally-occurring light reflection. Some on eBay have been advertising Brown's base card as a Twink, BUT IT IS '''NOT.'''

====Double Sparkle Bounty====

Randomly inserted into packs of Series Two are three "Double Sparkle" cards. The "Double Sparkle" is more like a giant, glowing, white dot in place of the normal, more subdued, flash.

Upton, Justin Verlander, David Wright, and Ryan Zimmmerman.

1992 Ultra

2018-04-14T18:35:30Z

Sanjosefuji: /* Reviews */

=Description=

1992 Ultra is a 600-card set released in two equal series of 300 cards. After a disappointing [[1991 Ultra | 1991 debut,]] Fleer greatly improved the look and feel of Ultra, putting it on a par with Topps' Stadium Club. Each card has a full-bleed (except for a marbleized bottom border) computer-generated design with glossy UV coating and gold-foil stamping. Collectors were enamored with the new look Ultra and it was one of the most successful products of 1992.

=Distribution=

36 packs per box, 15 cards per pack.

Tony Gwynn served as a spokesperson for Ultra was the exclusive subject of this 12-card vanity set, similar to Upper Deck's Baseball Heroes. The first ten cards of this set were randomly inserted in 1992 Ultra Series One packs and these cards are sequentially-numbered on the back as " X of 10." An additional two-cards were available through a mail-in offer. Collectors could receive the final two cards (sequentially-numbered as "Special Card #1" and "Special Card #2) for ten 1992 Ultra baseball wrappers plus $1.00 for shipping and handling. This offer was good through October 31st and, according to Fleer, over 100,000 sets were produced.

Tony Gwynn autographed an estimated 2000 cards from his vanity insert for insertion into Series One packs. Autographs for all ten cards in the series exist, but since the cards were not serial-numbered, it is unknown exactly how many of each individual card Gwynn signed -- it is assumed that Gwynn signed equal amounts of all ten cards.

Unlike the Roger Clemens cards that were inserted into [[1992 Fleer]] packs, each autograph is embossed with a Fleer insignia.

1998 Ultra

2018-04-14T18:33:26Z

Sanjosefuji: /* Reviews */

[[Image:1998ultra1.jpg|right|frame|1998 Ultra Series 1 hobby box]]

=Description=

1998 Ultra is a 501-card set released over two series. This would be the first year Ultra had short-printed base set cards, and the third year Fleer printed the cards on 20 pt. card stock.

The set contains the following short-printed subsets: Seasons Crowns (211-220), Prospects (221-245), Checklists (246-250 and 473-475), and Pizzazz (476-500). Card #501, featuring Mike Piazza as a New York Met, was a late addition to the set.

Rookie Cards include Kevin Millwood and Magglio Ordonez. Though never confirmed by Fleer, it's believed that several cards within the Prospects subset are in shorter supply than others - most notably #238 Ricky Ledee and #243 Jorge Velandia.

Seeded one in every pack, was one of 50 Million Dollar Moment cards which pictured some of the greatest moments in baseball history and gave the collector a chance to win a million dollars. Also seeded at the rate of one-per-pack were Diamond Ink point cards. Diamond Ink point cards were seeded across all 1998 Fleer Baseball card products. If a hobbyist amassed 500 points for a particular player, he/she could redeem them for a autographed baseball of the player.

=Distribution=

Hobby: 24 packs per box, 10 cards per pack (MSRP: $2.59)

Retail: 20 packs per box, 7 cards per pack (MSRP: $2.39)

=Checklist=

==Base Set==

===Series One===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'Topps') AND (num < 331)
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>
===Series Two===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'Topps') AND (num BETWEEN 331 AND 660)
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>
===Gimmicks===

====Series One====

Topps created two unannounced gimmick cards for the first series.

Card #234 is a variation of the Boston Red Sox World Series card from the base set, but with former New York City mayor Rudy Guiliani Photoshopped in. At the time, Guiliani was running for President and had stated to a crowd in New Hampshire that the Red Sox were his favorite baseball team. This card was seeded at the rate of roughly 1:70 packs.

A red-bordered version of this card also exists, similar in looks to the design of the [[2008 Topps Opening Day]] base set; however, it was inserted into Series One packs.

The other gimmick card is one of the most infamous cards Topps ever produced. It was seeded into packs at the rate of 1:72 and features a fictional teenage Japanese baseball player that, it was said, could throw 104MPH. For more information please see our [[Kazuo Uzuki]] article.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'Topps Gimmicks') AND (info = 1);
</sql2wiki>
====Series Two====

There were six gimmick cards inserted into Series Two packs.

Two of the cards are unannounced extensions of the Series One Campaign 2008 insert: Al Gore and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Both of these cards are noticeably tougher to find than the Series One cards.

A card sequentially-numbered "661" of New York Mets pitcher Johan Santana was also stealthly inserted. The card describes a no-hitter he, allegedly, threw during the last ever Mets game at Shea Stadium. Series Two was released some four months BEFORE the last Mets game at Shea was actually played.

The final three cards are of players who appeared in the 2006 World Baseball Classic. Shortly after the release of Series Two, Topps announced that it had acquired the license to produce cards for the 2009 WBC. One of the three players in the set, Kosuke Fukudome, was on the original checklist issued by Topps as a base card. Unbeknownst to collectors, what was supposed to have been his Topps rookie card was pulled from the base set in favor of a gimmicked WBC card.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'Topps Gimmicks') AND (info = 2);
</sql2wiki>

==Parallels==

All 660 base cards are available in the following parallels.

* Gold Foil

* Gold (serial-numbered to 2008 copies)

* Black (serial-numbered to 57 copies)

* Platinum (one-of-one)

* Printing Plates (four-for-each)

In addition the Rudy Guiliani gimmick card is also available in Gold Foil and Gold versions.

===Silk===

This partial parallel features 100 silk renditions of Series Two Topps cards. Each silk "card" is encased in an Allen & Ginter-like frame and serial-numbered to 50 copies. A second batch of Silk cards were inserted into Update packs.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'Topps Silk') AND (SUBSTRING(num FROM 3) < 101);

It should be noted that the "memorabilia" swatch attached to each card is not from a Yankees jersey -- or any other piece of game-used equipment. Rather, each is from Mantle's personal wardrobe.

==Base Set==

===1972===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives') AND (num < 51);
</sql2wiki>
===1982===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives') AND (num BETWEEN 51 AND 100);
</sql2wiki>
===1985===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives') AND (num BETWEEN 101 AND 150);
</sql2wiki>
===1990===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives') AND (num BETWEEN 151 AND 200);
</sql2wiki>
===All-Time Fan Favorites===

The 45 cards in the All-Time Fan Favorites subset are short-printed and seeded into packs at the rate of 1:4.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives') AND (num > 200);
</sql2wiki>

==Parallels==

All 245 base cards are available in the following parallels.

* Gold (serial-numbered to 199 copies)
* Printing Plates (set of four for each card)

===Day Glow Orange Parallel===

Distributed as part of a promotion that ran the week of June 10th, 2013, collectors purchasing a pack of any 2013 Topps baseball product at participating Hobby shops, could then buy a special five-card 2013 Topps Archives pack for $0.25. Each pack contained four base cards and one Day Glow Orange parallel, available exclusively to these $0.25 packs.

It appears that Day Glow Orange cards exist for only cards 1-200.

==Inserts==

===1969 4-in-1 Stickers===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives 1969 4-in-1 Stickers');
</sql2wiki>
===1972 Basketball===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives 1972 Basketball');
</sql2wiki>
===1983 All-Stars===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives 1983 All-Stars');
</sql2wiki>
===1998 Stadium Club Triumvirate===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives 1998 Stadium Club Triumvirate');

===Dual Fan Favorites===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Dual Fan Favorites');
</sql2wiki>
===Gallery of Heroes===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Gallery of Heroes');
</sql2wiki>
===Mini Tall Boys===

The design of this insert is based on the ''1965 Topps Football'' set, commonly known as the "Tall Boys" for their 2 1/2" X 4 11/16" size. As the name suggests, the cards in this set are significantly smaller.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Mini Tall Boys')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,5);
</sql2wiki>

===New Error Cards===

Like the Retail Chase cards, these were not on the original sell-sheet. They are based on error cards from previous Topps sets, although some of the selections are rather questionable. The Cardboard Connection has complied a [http://www.cardboardconnection.com/2013-topps-archives-baseball-new-errors-variations-guide visual guide to these cards.]

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives New Error Cards');
</sql2wiki>

===Retail Chase===

These, too were not on the original sell-sheet. They are exclusive to retail packs and done in the style of [[1989 Topps]] All-Stars subset.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Retail Chase');
</sql2wiki>

===1971 Greatest Moments===

This set is based on the obscure [[1971 Topps Greatest Moments]] set. Like the originals, each card measures 4 3/4" X 2 1/2". Unlike the originals, each is randomly seeded into Hobby boxes as a box topper and serial-numbered to 99 copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives 1971 Greatest Moments');
</sql2wiki>

==Autographs & Game-Used==

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Fan Favorites Autographs');

===Framed Autographed 1973 Minis===

This set is exclusive to Hobby packs and serial-numbered to 25 copies each.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Framed Autographed 1973 Minis');
</sql2wiki>

===1983 All-Stars Autographs===

Each 1983 All-Star Autograph is serial-numbered to only five copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">

</sql2wiki>

===Mini Tall Boys Autographs===

Each Mini Tall Boy Autograph is serial-numbered to 25 copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Mini Tall Boys Autographs');
</sql2wiki>

===Retail Chase Autographs===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Retail Chase Autographs');
</sql2wiki>
===Triple Autos===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Triple Autos');
</sql2wiki>

===Heavy Metal Autos===

This 10-card set features on-card autographs from eight stars of the Heavy Metal era of the 1980's through early 1990's. Each is also available in a "Metal" parallel, which is serial-numbered to 25 copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Heavy Metal Autos');
</sql2wiki>

===Cut Signatures===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives Cut Signatures');
</sql2wiki>

===1971 Greatest Moments Autographs===

Each Greatest Moments Autograph is serial-numbered to ten copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2013) AND (setname = 'Topps Archives 1971 Greatest Moments Autographs');
</sql2wiki>
===Pele Autograph===

A last minute addition to the product was an autograph of soccer legend Pele. The design is based on the [[1975 Topps]] set.

It should be noted that, although Pele is listed as playing for "BRAZIL," he's wearing a New York Cosmos jersey.

1981 Oakland A's Granny Goose

2018-04-14T18:22:19Z

Sanjosefuji: /* Reviews */

[[File:GrannyGoose-1981-Dave-Revering.jpg‎‎ |250px|thumb|right|1981 Granny Goose Oakland A's: Dave Revering]]

=Description=

1981 Oakland A's Granny Goose is a 15-card set that was distributed in packages of Granny Goose potato chips. The set is sequentially-numbered according to the player's uniform number.

This would be the first year of a three-year partnership between the A's and Granny Goose, and the 1981 set is the scarcest of the three.

Card #13 was pulled from the set after he was traded, and as such is short-printed. Card #10 is also believed to be SPed.

==Base Set==

===Series One===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck') AND (num < 421)
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>
===Series Two===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck') AND (num > 420)
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>

==Parallels==

===Gold Hologram===

Randomly inserted into each 15-set case of 1993 Upper Deck factory sets, is one set where all 840 base cards have been struck with a gold hologram on the back. There is no way of identifying which sets have the gold holograms without opening the seal on the set.

===Marlins/Rockies Team Sets===

Upper Deck produced 27-card team sets for the two 1993 expansion clubs: the Florida Marlins and Colorado Rockies. These sets were sold primarily as mass-market retail outlets in The greater Miami and Denver areas, respectively. The cards parallel the base cards, but have a special Marlins/Rockies foil stamp on the front.

==Inserts==

===SP===

These two cards were randomly inserted into packs of Series One (SP5) and Series Two (SP6).

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck SP')
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>

===Fifth Anniversary===

This 15-card set celebrates Upper Deck's five years in the sports card business by reprinting some of Upper Deck's most popular cards in the last five years. These cards are exclusive to Series Two Hobby packs. To differentiate from the originals, the fronts of each Fifth Anniversary card have black borders, gold foil stamping, and a "Fifth Anniversary" logo.

A 3 1/2" X 5" jumbo version was also produced, exclusively to retail re-packs, which contained one pack of each 1993 Upper Deck series. The jumbos cards are each serial-numbered to 10,000 copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Fifth Anniversary')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Future Heroes===

This ten-card set continues the Baseball Heroes anthology insert set begun in the 1990 Upper Deck high-number set. Rather than pay tribute to one retired legend, Upper Deck went in another direction with eight current players.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Future Heroes')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Home Run Heroes===

This 28-card set features the home run leader from each Major League team. Each Series One Jumbo pack (both Hobby and Retail) contained one of these cards.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Home Run Heroes')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===On Deck===

Inserted one per Series Two jumbo packs, these 25 standard-size cards profile baseball's top players.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck On Deck')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Reggie Jackson Baseball Heroes Jumbos===

This nine-card jumbo set (3 1/2" by 5") parallels the [[1990 Upper Deck]] insert set of the same name. The jumbos were issued in 1993 as a retail blister pack insert in a pack which included one pack of each 1993 Upper Deck series. These cards also include a 5th Anniversary Upper Deck logo and the words "1993 Hall of Fame inductee" on the front. The un-numbered "Header" card was not produced for this set.

Each card is serial-numbered to 10,000 copies.

===Reggie Jackson's Clutch Performers===

These 20 cards represent Reggie Jackson's selection of players who have come through under pressure and are exclusive to Series Two retail wax and Hobby jumbo packs.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Reggie Jackson Clutch Performers')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Season Highlights===

This 20-card insert set captures great moments of the 1992 Major League Baseball season. The cards were exclusively distributed in specially marked Series Two packs that were available only to dealers who set up at Upper Deck Heroes of Baseball Card Shows. Each dealer was entitled to purchased a maximum of two, 20-box cases. The odds of finding a Season Highlight card is 1:9 packs.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Season Highlights')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Then & Now===

This 18-card hologram set highlights veteran stars in their rookie year and today, reflecting on how they and the game have changed. Cards 1-9 were randomly inserted in all Series One packs; cards 10-18 were randomly inserted in all Series Two packs.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Then and Now')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Triple Crown Contenders===

This ten-card, Series One Hobby only, set highlights players who were selected by Upper Deck as having the best shot at winning Major League Baseball's Triple Crown.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Triple Crown Contenders')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Walter Iooss Collection===

This 27-card set spotlights the work of famous sports photographer Walter Iooss Jr. by presenting 26 of the game's current greats (one-per-team) in a candid photo set. The cards were inserted in Series One retail foil and Hobby jumbo packs.

A 3 1/2" X 5" jumbo version was also produced, exclusively to retail re-packs, which contained one pack of each 1993 Upper Deck series. The jumbos cards are each serial-numbered to 10,000 copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1993) AND (setname = 'Upper Deck Walter Iooss Collection')
ORDER BY SUBSTRING(num,1,1),lpad(substring(num,2),10,0);
</sql2wiki>

===Willie Mays Baseball Heroes===

This ten-card set was randomly inserted in all Series One packs and is numbered as a continuation of the Baseball Heroes anthology series. Unlike previous Baseball Heroes sets, the un-numbered header card is not short-printed. Also, Willie Mays did not autograph any cards.

1998 Donruss Signature Series

2018-04-14T18:11:33Z

Sanjosefuji: /* Reviews */

=Description=

1998 Donruss Signature Series is a 140-card set released under a temporary license by Playoff, Inc., in January 1999. Like in previous years, each pack contained one on-card autograph.

This product was originally intended for release in October, 1998, but was delayed due to the bankruptcy of Pinnacle Brands. As part of Pinnacle's agreement with the Players Association, those players who signed for this product would NOT be paid for their signatures until AFTER the set's release. To ensure that their members would get paid for their services, MLB and the MLBPA granted Playoff (who had bought the rights to Pinnacle's name and inventory in bankruptcy) a temporary license that allowed them to release Signature Series and [[1998 Leaf Rookies & Stars]].

=Distribution=

Four cards plus one autograph per pack (MSRP: $14.99)

==Base Set==

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 1998) AND (setname = 'Donruss Signature');
</sql2wiki>

==Parallels==

All 140 base cards are also available as a "Proof" parallel. Proofs are limited (but not serial-numbered) to 150 copies.

==Autographs & Game-Used==

===Autographs===

122 players signed for 1998 Donruss Signature Series . Not all players signed an equal number of cards. For most cards there were three cards produced.

* Century Marks (First 100 cards, serial-numbered)
* Millenium Marks (Next 1000 cards, serial-numbered)
* Base Autograph (All other cards)

For example, for a player who signed 5000 cards, the first 100 were designated as "Century Marks" and serial-numbered 1 through 100. The next 1000 were Millennium Marks and numbered 101-1100. All other cards were not serial-numbered.

For those players who signed less than 1100 cards, no "base" autograph exists -- only Century and Millennium Marks.

A Travis Lee card featuring a facsimile signature was distributed as a promo card.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT player,info,serial FROM cards WHERE (year = 1998) AND (setname = 'Donruss Signature Autographs');
</sql2wiki>
====Millennium/Century Marks====

Listed below is the checklist for the Millennium Marks autographs and the number of each produced. As you can see, not all players signed their full allotment of 1000 Millennium Marks.

The checklist for the Century Marks is identical to that of the Millennium's, and for brevity's sake we are not repeating the full checklist. Suffice to say, most players signed their full allotment of 100 Century Marks.

Juan Encarnancion, Dante Powell, and Brett Tomko did not sign any Century Marks.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT player,info,serial FROM cards WHERE (year = 1998) AND (setname = 'Donruss Signature Autographs Millennium');
</sql2wiki>

===Significant Signatures===

This 18-card set features autographs of some of baseball's all-time great players. Only 2000 sets were produced and each card is serial-numbered.

NOTES

* The Catfish Hunter card was signed in either blue or blank ink.

* Only 1000 serial #'d copies of Phil Rizzuto's card were produced.

* Nolan Ryan and Ozzie Smith packed out as exchange cards as they were unable to return their cards to Playoff in time. Both of the exchange cards were reprints of what the autographed versions would eventually look like and were sequentially-numbered (#14 and 15) as part of the set. Cards 14 and 15 were good for cards R1 and R2.

Sandy Koufax was on the original checklist issued by the pre-bankruptcy Donruss, but he did not return his cards in time for the pack out. In the time between Donruss's acquisition by Playoff and the release of Signature Series, it was uncertain if Playoff could come to terms with Koufax. Therefore, unlike Ryan and Smith, a Koufax exchange card was not issued in packs. Eventually, officials at Playoff were able to come to terms with Koufax and made the Billy Williams card an exchange card. Each collector that pulled Billy Williams's Significant Signature card could send it in to Donruss for the Koufax (#R3) card. In addition, the signed Williams card was sent back too, but marked with the word "REDEEMED" on the back so that it could not be used again.

The exchange deadline for cards R1-R3 was December 31st, 1999. All three "R-Series" exchange cards (Ryan, Koufax and Smith) feature refractive, shiny fronts whereas the other cards seeded in packs are printed on basic foilboard.

* At some point in time after the product's release, non-refractive versions of the Ryan, Smith, and Koufax cards made their way into the secondary market. Each card features a different card image than the Refractor versions (most notably with Koufax wearing a Brooklyn cap). The Koufax and Smith cards were serial-numbered to 2000 copies, while the Nolan Ryan was numbered to 1000.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info,serial FROM cards WHERE (year = 1998) AND (setname = 'Donruss Signature Significant Signatures');
</sql2wiki>

===Signing Bonus===

This 32-card set features redemption cards that could be redeemed for an autographed baseball signed by player. The baseballs were laser burned with a Donruss stamp to ensure authenticity. Every ball, except for Ben Grieve's, is serial numbered. The blank-backed exchange cards are serial numbered in gold foil on front, but are unnumbered within the context of a complete set and therefore checklisted in alphabetical order. These exchange cards carried an expiration date of December 31st, 1999.

=Checklist=

==Promos==

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1999) AND (setname = 'Topps Gallery Previews');
</sql2wiki>
==Base Set==

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player,info from cards WHERE (year = '1999') AND (setname='Topps Gallery') AND (num < 101)
ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>
===SPs===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">

ORDER BY num +0 ASC;
</sql2wiki>

===Gallery of Heroes===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1999) AND (setname = 'Topps Gallery Gallery of Heroes');
</sql2wiki>
===Heritage===

This 20-card set is done in the style of the [[1953 Topps]] set and features the artwork of James Fiorentino. At the time of the product's release, collectors responded well to the 1953-style and would set the stage for the retro-themed products like Topps Heritage that would drive The Hobby in the early 2000s.

Hank Aaron, who did not appear in the 53 Topps set, has a "Card That Never Was" in this set.

A Heritage Proof parallel printed on foil-fronted polystyrene cardstock is also available.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1999) AND (setname = 'Topps Gallery Heritage');
</sql2wiki>
====Postcards====

Heritage Postcards is a seven-card over-sized partial-parallel of the Heritage insert set.

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1999) AND (setname = 'Topps Gallery Heritage Postcards');
</sql2wiki>
====Auction Points====

For the second straight year Topps ran an Auction Points promotion within the Gallery brand. The original artwork for each of the 20 1999 Topps Gallery Heritage insert cards, plus the four different colored printing plates (Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow) used to produce the Heritage cards, attractively framed together, were the prizes.

Collectors were encouraged to accumulate as many points as possible utilizing seven different points cards - all of which were randomly seeded into packs as follows:

* 25, 50, or 75 points: one-per-pack
* 100 points: 1:12/packs
* 1000 points: 1:240/packs
* 5000 points: 1:640/packs
* Double Points: 1:640/packs

Once a collector had accumulated as many points as possible, he or she had to then decide upon which of the pieces of Heritage artwork to vie for. All point cards had to be sent in to Topps by October 15th, 1999. As the deadline neared, it was typical to see transactions for tens of thousands of points trading hands in bulk lots for 1/10th or 1/20th of a penny per point.

The backs of each Auction Point card have one of six set checklists.

===Exhibitions===

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1999) AND (setname = 'Topps Gallery Exhibitions');
</sql2wiki>

==Autographs==

<sql2wiki database="carddb">
SELECT num,player FROM cards WHERE (year = 1999) AND (setname = 'Topps Gallery Autographs');
</sql2wiki>
