Inserts
1954 Topps Archives
In a rare instance of inter-company cooperation, 1994 UD All-Time Heroes contained three base cards from the 1994 Topps Archives set. In 1994, both Ted Williams and Mickey Mantle were under exclusive license to Upper Deck, precluding their appearance in Topps Archives. All-Time Heroes contained two cards (#1 and #250) of Ted Williams, both of which were reprints of both of Williams's 1954 Topps cards. Despite not appearing in the original 1954 Topps set due to his then exclusive contract with Bowman, Topps created also a "card that never was" of Mickey Mantle (#259) that is similar to the original 1954 set design and inserted it into Upper Deck's product.
