Description

2008 Upper Deck Timeline is a 385 card set, released in November, 2008. The set consists of a 100-card base set with the final 285 cards "short-printed." The "short-prints" are all loosely based on the design of previous Upper Deck Baseball sets. It should be noted that the 1992 Upper Deck Minors, 1994 Upper Deck All-Time Heroes, and 1995 SP Top Prospects subsets are all produced in roughly the same quantity as the short-set. Only the 2004 UD Timeless Teams, 1993, '94, and '95 SP subsets are truly short-printed.

Each eight-card pack promises six SPs. Each 18-pack Hobby box yields two autographs.
