2007 Upper Deck Masterpieces

18 packs - 4 cards per pack

Box 1

  • Stroke of Genius Autograph - Jered Weaver
  • Captured on Canvas Memorabilia - Vladimir Guerrero (jersey), Roy Oswalt (jersey) and Tony Gwynn (jersey)
  • Green Parallel - (5) Andy LaRoche, Chris Chambliss, Babe Ruth, Bucky Dent and Bill Clinton
  • Blue (numbered to 75) - Lou Gehrig
  • Gray (numbered to 50) - Chase Utley
  • Jumbo Box Topper (one per box) - Lou Gehrig

Box 2

  • Stroke of Genius Autograph - Josh Hamilton
  • Captured on Canvas Memorabilia - Carlos Beltran (jersey), Carl Yastrzemski (jersey) and Dontrell Willis (jersey)
  • Green Parallel - (5) Brooks Robinson, Ken Griffey Jr., Phil Hughes, Ichiro and Cole Hamels
  • Black (numbered to 99) - Frank Thomas
  • Red (numbered to 75) - Andrew Miller
  • Jumbo Box Topper (one per box) - Babe Ruth

This "throwback" product has a unique look and feel with its canvas stock and top notch artistry. A truly exceptional product that should appeal to "old school" and modern collectors with its blend of retired greats and current stars. The base set features exceptional artwork that captures some memorable moments in baseball's rich history including Carlton Fisk willing his Game 6 World Series home run to stay fair, Lou Gehrig at his Yankee Stadium farewell speech, Reggie Jackson's 3 home run World Series game and capturing Ozzie Smith airborne during one of his signature flips.

Each box produced an autograph, three memorabilia inserts and seven parallels. Collectors will also want to check out the Jumbo Box Toppers that feature many classic shots, the two we pulled were Gehrig and Ruth on their final appearance at Yankee Stadium. Overall, this product is a definite winner that will surely appeal to set collectors of all ages.

Out of the two boxes we opened, we pulled several inserts of the big name NASCAR drivers. Pulling the Kahne glove memorabilia card from the one box was a good pull. We were hoping for a better autograph than Tony Raines from the other box, but you can't always get everything. All in all, both boxes provided good cards.
