Wrappers Of Collecting Past:1999 Upper Deck Century Legends Baseball

Upper Deck Legends was a red hot brand out in 1997. The on-card autographs of NFL greats sold extremely well and still do today.

A couple years later, Upper Deck released a Century Legends baseball product and I knew I had to jump in on a few packs.

 

I never actually hit anything out of it at all and the product sold pretty fast locally so I was only able to scoop up a few packs.

A couple of years ago I was able to pick up some base card singles off a yard sale for the PC but other than that, I haven't seen much of the product around. 

How bout you guys? You pull that big auto from it? A historical memorabilia card? let me know below!

90's Flashback:1999-2000 Upper Deck Century Legends Jaromir Jagr

Upper Deck pounded out a ton of excellent products as we headed into the 2000's. One of the most popular was Upper Deck Legends/Century Legends. The product packed fun inserts and top notch autographs.

I acquired this card from my father when we did a trade last spring.

I like the design, but gotta say that Jaromir doesn't appear to. Look at that face!

Baseball Card Yard Sale Find Part 9: 1999 Upper Deck Century Legends

Well, here is another post to what will be many posts of me breaking down what I got at a Yard Sale that I posted about recently. Today's post features Upper Deck Century Legends. It also features yet another Griffey addition! Read on!

Clemente and a couple of Jeter's for the PC:

Cool posed Mantle for the PC as well

Whoop...there it is..Griffey # 418. I like this base card design. The photo's are bright and have nice shots. The overall layout I find elegant. Don't you agree?

To finish off the box were some inserts including Clemens and Willie Mays. I found the inserts a bit boring honestly and I didn't know that they were inserts til the second sorting time around. I thought they were subsets til I noticed the card numbering on the back. I was already pleased with the above finds, but inserts too, that's awesome!

Once again I am happy about this find. A couple Jeters, Griffey and some inserts and only for a quarter. Bet you can't find one of these cards individually for that price.

Stay tuned as this Yard Sale series continues on!
