e-card Classics

This 15-card set features reprints of classic Upper Deck baseball cards. The reverse side has a scratch-off bar concealing a code that, when entered onto a special Upper Deck website, can see their e-card "upgraded" to a game jersey card (see below).

• EC1 Ken Griffey, Jr.
• EC2 Gary Sheffield
• EC3 Randy Johnson
• EC4 Sammy Sosa
• EC5 Carlos Delgado
• EC6 Ichiro Suzuki
• EC7 Andruw Jones
• EC8 Chipper Jones
• EC9 Kazuhiro Sasaki
• EC10 Shawn Green
• EC11 Alex Rodriguez
• EC12 Brian Giles
• EC13 J.D. Drew
• EC14 Pat Burrell

Ichiro Suzuki All-Star Game

This card was intended to be distributed at the 2001 All-Star Game FanFest, which happened to be in Seattle, and features Mariners rookie sensation Ichiro Suzuki. The card is done in the style of the 2001 Upper Deck Baseball flagship, but with an All-Star Game logo on the front stamped in either bronze, silver, or gold foil. The Silver card is serial-numbered to 2001 copies, while the Gold card is numbered to 51. All three cards are sequentially-numbered "UD51" on the reverse.

It is believe that, since Fleer "won" the right to produce an Ichiro card for the 2001 FanFest, Upper Deck was not allowed to distribute this card at that event.
