2003 Victory
Description
2003 Victory is a 200 card set released, exclusive to retail, in Feburary, 2003. After four years as a large but no-frills, insert-less product, Upper Deck dramatically changed Victory into a multi-tiered, multi-paralleled, set with a collectible card game element. The first 100 cards comprise the short set while the last 100 cards were short-printed. The corners on all cards are rounded.
These changes were not well received by collectors, and as a result, Upper Deck discontinued the line after 2003 -- although it remains part of their hockey line.
Distribution
6 cards in a pack, 36 cards in a box.
