Checklist

Promo

A Ken Griffey, Jr. card was distributed to dealers and to The Hobby media several weeks prior to the product's release. This card is serial numbered "0000/0000" on front, has the word "SAMPLE" pasted across the back in red ink and is oddly numbered either "24 East," "24 Central," or "24 West." Originally, Upper Deck had intended to distribute 1999 SPx regionally, in a matter similar to the regional inserts in 1994 Upper Deck.
