As it says, a number of hockey sets to peek at from the box of random cards bestowed upon me from local collector and great guy Jeff.
First up, some 1998-99 UD Choice. The Collector's Choice sets may have changed names over the years, but the offerings were pretty consistent.
Though I don't like the logo, the design is solid for the card fronts, and fits in well with the 90s.
The base set has a couple subsets. I have never been a huge fan of the international ones - I mean, why not give them their own set, but the GM Choice one is great.
Next up, 1990-91 Score American which I have a complete set of, so these cards will be great fodder to get some Bruins for Jeff...
Many of these have up to 5 copies, so I gather Jeff was collecting them at the time for the star power, which is understandable.
We even have a couple Jagr rookie cards. This is the one I think of when it comes to his rookie card.
I am still building the 2005-06 Upper Deck Victory set so was hoping I could get some missing base cards, and I did just get one at least, still a dozen or two to go.
I did need a few inserts though which came along...see the below three...
As for 2022-23 and 2023-24 flagship Upper Deck sets, I haven't decided whether I am going to try and build either, but at this point I am leaning on not, so get them while they are available if you need them.
Easier "no" for not collecting the SP or Ice sets...though I will keep the inserts.
Great selection of cards and still half a box of cards still to go!
