2010 Upper Deck Exquisite
This article is about a set that was just released.
Some information may change as more facts become known.
Description
After a three-year layoff, Upper Deck brought back Exquisite Baseball for 2010. Unlike the 2006 or 2007 set, 2010 Exquisite was not distributed as a stand-alone product. Rather, the set would be randomly inserted into packs of all 2010 Upper Deck Baseball products.
The base set consists of 100 cards, and each card is serial-numbered to 75 copies. All 100 cards were randomly inserted into packs of 2010 Upper Deck Series One as case hits.
The first wave of Exquisite patch cards were to have been included in 2010 SPx, and the first autographs were to have been seeded into packs of 2010 SP Authentic. However, on March 3, 2010, as part of a settlement with Major League Baseball Properties, Upper Deck agreed not to release any baseball card products already in the pipeline -- to include SPx, SP Authentic, First Edition, and Goudey. It is unclear if any further Exquisite cards will be produced in 2010.
Distribution
2010 Upper Deck Series One: 1:720 packs.
