2001 Upper Deck Series 2

2001 Upper Deck Series 2 hobby box

Description

Subtitled the "Midsummer Classic Edition," 2001 Upper Deck Series Two is a 180-card base set and was released in June 2001.

As the subtitle suggests, the inserts and game used cards have an All-Star Game theme.

The set contains two of the more notable rookie cards of Ichiro Suzuki and Albert Pujols. Both cards are among the few "true" rookie cards of each player that were neither short-printed nor serial-numbered, making them both accessible and collectible. Because of their accessibility, both player's cards have been heavily submitted to professional graders.

Distribution

Hobby: 24 packs per box, eight cards per pack (MSRP: $3)

NOTE: Series Two packs contain two fewer cards per pack than Series One.

e-Cards

Randomly inserted into Hobby boxes as a two-pack box-topper, this six-card insert features cards with a code that when entered onto a special Upper Deck website, adds a corresponding "virtual" card to the collector's "virtual" collection. In addition, randomly selected e-Cards can "e-Volve" into autographed and game jersey cards.

Unlike the e-Cards that were distributed in 2000 Upper Deck Series Two, the code is concealed by a silver bar that must be scratched off.

The website for the e-Card program was discontinued in 2004.
