Crisp photography is what makes the cards really stand out, especially when compared to the drab pictures used on a lot of O-Pee-Chee and Topps sets in the years leading up to Upper Deck's debut.īase card backs offer a cropped photo along with a variety of stats.
Cards have white borders that are complemented by a marble frame that's colored according to the player's team. The design brought a glossy look to hockey. Both came with separate boxes, although High Series packs have a mix of all 550 cards. The first 400 are considered the Low Series and the final 150 make up the High Series.
The 1990-91 Upper Deck Hockey set has 550 total cards divided into two series. It didn't hurt matters any that it has a loaded checklist filled with rookie cards of Hall of Famers and future Hall of Famers.
Just like it did in 1989 with baseball cards, Upper Deck's debut on the ice took hockey card quality to a new level.
