595.0. "1993/1994 Upper Deck Hockey" by DNEAST::PURNELL_CHRI (Pyro Suppression Technician) Fri Oct 15 1993 12:22

    
    
    	93/94 Upper Deck Hockey
    
    	Looks like boxes will be arriving within the next couple of weeks.
    	Saw the INFO sheet...many subsets, acetate cards and 2 series,
    	with no Low Series cards in the High Series packs.  2nd Series 
    	will not look like Series 1...not sure what that means!
    
    	Did not mention (or I didn't see it!) who the Hero's will be 
    	named, ie. Gretzky, Howe....Don't remember the number of cards
    	in either Series...anybody else?  Boxes going for $30 up here 
    	in Maine.....any news anywhere else?

595.1What I found insideDNEAST::PURNELL_CHRIPyro Suppression TechnicianTue Nov 09 1993 11:0614
    
    	Well, opened a box last nite....50 some odd from a series I set...
    	Got 4 inserts: 
    
    	2 Gretzky's Great Ones - Mark Messier and Theoren Fleury
    	1 Next in Line (Somewhat of a hologram) - Patrick Roy/Felix Potvin
    	1 SP4 - Teemu Selanne (part hologram/part regular card)
    
    	Cards look ALOT like Topps Premier...
    
    	4 inserts.....In a box...Odds are getting pretty high in finding
    	them...Not like last year when you could end up with 8-9 per....

595.2jumbosUHUH::SOKOLThu Nov 18 1993 20:1110
    
    Opened a box of jumbos. Each pack has Hat Trick Heroe card. Strange
    selection of players,some actually never had hat tricks in NHL yet
    because they are still rookies, like Nylander etc. 20 card set.
    Collation...Don't have a word for it, got 3-4 cards of the same
    player!? Had a couple of inserts from the regular line. Nothing really
    earthshaking about UD hockey this year. Oh yeh, plenty of Lindros and
    Daigle (well, at least i got a couple of each) cards, not like before.

	I'm going to be in the Boston area next week and am looking to pick 
	up a box or two of the 93/94 UD Hockey.  What are the prices like?
	What type of boxes are available (Jumbo, regular series I, series II,
	etc)?.  Where's the best place to buy?

	Thx

    Well, Walt, last sunday at the card show in Burlington, one dealer was
    blowing his inventory and had UD hockey at $15/box !!! Of course he
    sold everything quite quick, but i had a few easy chances to pick a few
    boxes at $20 if i wanted.
