1999 Upper Deck

Description

1999 Upper Deck is a 525 card set released in two series of 255 and 270 cards, respectively. Series One was released in December, 1998; while Series Two in May, 1999. With this set, Upper Deck celebrated their 10th Anniversary, and many of the inserts are based around this event.

Between the two series, there is a gap of ten cards; meaning, that Series Two begins with card #266 and cards #256-#265 do not exist.

It is believed -- but never confirmed by Upper Deck -- that the subset cards may have been slightly short-printed.

Distribution

Hobby/Retail: 24 packs per box, 10 cards per pack (MSRP: $2.99).

NOTE: Series One Hobby boxes contain 23 packs plus one 1989 Upper Deck Hi-Series pack.
