2010 Upper Deck Baseball Released

February 9, 2010 By Rich Mueller

It’s full speed ahead at Upper Deck, which continues its 21 year run with a 600-card base set now on the market.

Upper Deck has released its flagship baseball set for 2010. Series One hits stores as the company’s first issue not under the auspices of Major League Baseball. Having produced cards each year since its landmark debut in 1989, the company is hoping that collectors won’t care that it doesn’t carry an official license.

2010 Upper Deck has taken its place alongside rival Topps with 20 cards per pack and 16 packs per box.

“Obviously we’re extremely pumped up right now with this week’s unveiling in hobby shops and retail stores across the country,” said Gabriel Garcia, Upper Deck’s Baseball brand manager. “We really went to task to find the best shots possible of the players, combined with a terrific assortment of autographs and memorabilia cards from baseball biggest stars, past and present.”

The 600-card base set is complimented with a collection of autographs and memorabilia cards featuring baseball’s biggest names. Beyond highlighting today’s superstars like Derek Jeter, David Wright, Mark Texeira, Albert Pujols, Ken Griffey Jr. and David Ortiz, the set also includes sought-after “Signature Sensations” autograph cards from sluggers like Prince Fielder, Joe Mauer, Grady Sizemore, Adrian Gonzalez, Lance Berkman and Miguel Tejada. Autographs and game-jersey memorabilia cards also include pitchers like Josh Beckett, Cole Hamels, Jonathan Papelbon and Scott Kazmir.

For rookie card collectors, Upper Deck Series One offers its 40-card “Star Rookies” subset. The collection includes up-and-coming pitchers like Brian Matusz, Wade Davis and Madison Bumgarner, along with promising hitters like Tyler Flowers, Buster Posey and Drew Stubbs.

The insert lineup includes a base set Gold Parallel that’s numbered to 99.

Collectors can also try their hand at discovering 20th Anniversary Heroes Art Cards, which celebrate the hobby’s first-ever certified autographs introduced by Upper Deck in 1990 with its Reggie Jackson and Nolan Ryan signatures. The 10-card lineup headlined by the likes of Jeter, Griffey and Chipper Jones and the autographed version for each player is numbered to 90.

With a further tribute to yesteryear, Upper Deck has included a highly sought-after “Baseball Heroes” cut-signature card (numbered to 56) of Joe DiMaggio.

Upper Deck also included a 200-card “Season Biography” collection (two cards per pack) that captures some of the greatest games and moments from the 2009 baseball season including White Sox hurler Mark Buehrle’s perfect game thrown on July 23, which was aided in large part by utility outfielder Dewayne Wise’s ninth-inning catch at the wall.
