	The 1990 Upper Deck set contains 800 cards, issued in two series: Low Series (1-700) and High Series (701-800). High Series packs contained ~~a mixture of~~ Low and ~~High~~ numbered cards. The card fronts are non-glossy have a color player photograph with white borders. The card backs have a color player photograph, recent player stats, and an anti-counterfeiting holograph. The cards are printed on thin, white card stock. Team Checklist cards, featuring original artwork from Vernon Wells, Jr., and Star Rookie cards are scattered throughout the set. Cards sequentially-numbered in multiples of 100 are checklists. Rookies include Juan Gonzalez, David Justice, Ray Lankford, Dean Palmer, Sammy Sosa, and Larry Walker. Curiously, Upper Deck did not produce a Frank Thomas rookie card.		The 1990 Upper Deck set contains 800 cards, issued in two series: Low Series (1-700) and High Series (701-800).

	The set was riddled with typos and errors, especially in the first 100 cards. Production was greatly increased and some packs and factory sets found their way to retail outlets.

	Reggie Jackson autographed 2500 copies of his Baseball Heroes checklist card for random insertion in High Series packs. Each card is hand-numbered on the front, and the reverse side has a diamond-shaped hologram -- as opposed to the circular hologram on the non-autographed cards.

	It should be noted that some "Mr. October" notated cards without a "00" serial-number do exist; however, these were not notated for this promotion, and may have been notated by Jackson after the fact.		It should be noted that some "Mr. October" notated cards without a "00" serial-number do exist; however, these were not notated for this promotion, and may have been notated by Jackson after the fact. For example, card 225/2500 is notated.

			In 2025, [https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com/1990-upper-deck-reggie-jackson-autograph-babe-ruth-mr-october/ it emerged that Jackson notated several "milestone" cards with the names of other sluggers.] For example, card 714/2500 is notated both with "Mr. October" and "Babe Ruth." (Ruth, of course hit 714 career home runs.) Similar inscriptions for Harmon Killebrew (573/2500) and Willie Mays (660/2500) are also known to exist.
