Description

Upper Deck created two team sets for the Seattle Mariners in 1997 in association with Pepsi. One set of 19 cards were inserted into specially-marked 12-packs of Pepsi Cola products in the Pacific Northwest. The other set is a 21-card set that was given away at a Mariners game.

Both sets look nearly identical, as they both take the 1997 Upper Deck design and replace the copper-foil "strip" on the front and replace it with blue. The checklists are nearly the same.

Cards given away at the game are sequentially-numbered with a "P" prefix; while those inserted into Pepsi 12-packs have a "M" prefix.
