1996-97 UD Game Jersey set - COMPLETE!

[webottew]

With all the recent love and hype for 90s cards, I'm ecstatic to have this set in my collection. These are the original GU cards, and were a hit at 1:2500. Anyone have guestimates of the population of these cards? 100? 200? And these cards are super thin! Less than 35 pt. It seems amazing there is even material inside, sandwiched between 2 layers of cardboard. Such a clean and classic design. Iconic.

I received the last piece today -- Bure. :dance:

Great set! I can count on three fingers the Jagr cards I have sold off over the years that I regret; that jersey card is one of the three.

I remember pulling the Messier when the product first came out. They were huge odds pulls back then. I remember a guy paying me $150 on the spot.

Congrats!!! :beer:

Beautiful, beautiful set. I remember when UD introduced these...people were losing their minds over them. While Press Pass may have been first out of the gate with jersey cards, Upper Deck perfected them. Just the way these cards were built is impressive enough.

Probably the only GU set I would ever attempt. Congrats!
