1999 Ultimate Victory box

Description

The 1999 Ultimate Victory set was produced by Upper Deck and released exclusively to The Hobby in late 1999. Ultimate Victory was UD's first attempt at a Topps Chrome-like parallel brand.

The base set is 180 cards, all based on the design of that year's Victory Baseball set. The first 120 cards make up the short-set, and there are two 30-card, short-printed subsets: Rookie 99 and McGwire Magic. The stated odds of finding a Rookie 99 or McGwire Magic are 1:4/packs.

Among the key rookie cards: Josh Beckett, Freddy Garcia, Tim Hudson, Alfonso Soriano, Pat Burrell, and Rick Ankiel.

Distribution

24 packs per box, five cards per pack. Hobby only.
