Description

After a three-year layoff, Upper Deck brought back Exquisite Baseball for 2010. Unlike the 2007 set, 2010 Exquisite was not distributed as a stand-alone product. Rather, the set would be randomly inserted into packs of all 2010 Upper Deck Baseball products in a manner similar to the distribution of the 2006 Exquisite cards.

The first 100 cards of the base set were randomly inserted into packs of 2010 Upper Deck Series One as case hits. Each base card is serial-numbered to 75 copies.

On March 3, 2010, as part of a settlement with Major League Baseball Properties, Upper Deck agreed not to release any baseball card products already in the pipeline -- to include SPx, SP Authentic, First Edition, and Goudey.

The first wave of Exquisite patch cards were to have been included in 2010 SPx, and the first autographs were to have been seeded into packs of 2010 SP Authentic. However, many Exquisite patch cards have surfaced on the secondary market since 2010 and collectors have stated on the FCB and other forums that they have pulled patch cards from packs of 2010 Upper Deck, refuting claims that these patch cards were backdoored. Instead, some collectors state that patch cards were inserted in late-production boxes of 2010 Upper Deck.

As per Upper Deck's Chris Carlin, Exquisite base card #86 was not made and thus the base set is complete at 99 cards. Additionally, there are only 49 (not 50 as originally intended) single patch cards in the set.

Distribution

2010 Upper Deck Series One Hobby: 1:192 packs.
