Checklist

Base Set

<sql2wiki database="carddb"> SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'SP Legendary Cuts') AND (num < 101); </sql2wiki>

SPs

Each SP is serial-numbered to 550 copies.

<sql2wiki database="carddb"> SELECT num,player,info FROM cards WHERE (year = 2008) AND (setname = 'SP Legendary Cuts') AND (num > 100); </sql2wiki>

Parallels

All 200 base cards are available in a Memorable Moments parallel. Each card has a factoid regarding that particular player that is unique to that card and is labelled as a "1 of 1." However, there are multiple variations of each card, meaning it's not a "true" one-of-one.

The exact number of Memorable Moments cards was never released by Upper Deck.
