Description

2001 SP Authentic is a 240-card set issued in two separate releases. The first 180 cards were released as the SP Authentic set in September, 2001; while an additional 60-card Update set was distributed within Upper Deck Rookie Update packs in late December, 2001.

Each basic sealed box contained 24 packs plus two three-card bonus packs (one entitled Stars of Japan and another entitled Mantle Pinstripe Exclusives).

The basic set is broken into the following components: basic veterans (1-90), Future Watch (91-135) and Superstars (136-180). Each Future Watch and Superstar subset card from the first series is serial numbered of 1250 copies. Though odds were not released by the manufacturer, information supplied by dealers breaking several cases indicate on average one in every 18 packs contains one of these serial-numbered cards.

The Update set is broken down as follows: basic veterans (181-210) and Future Watch (211-240). Each Update Future Watch is serial numbered to 1500 copies. Notable Rookie Cards in the basic set include Albert Pujols, Tsuyoshi Shinjo and Ichiro Suzuki. Notable Rookie Cards in the Update set include Mark Prior and Mark Teixeira.

Distribution

SP Authentic: 24 packs plus one Pinstripe Exclusives and one Stars of Japan pack per box, five cards per pack (MSRP: $4.99)
