2003 Upper Deck MLB Honor Roll - Pack 01

2003 Upper Deck MLB Honor Roll
Pack 01

The 2003 Upper Deck MLB Honor Roll set is a nice, clean set featuring mostly star players from 2003.  The card design has a full team logo, team and player name, and a gold foil set logo on the front.  The back of the card features a second team logo along with the last five years of player statistics.  The cards aren't overly unique, but they are a nice addition for any team collection!  My guess is the entire set, in binder form, would look pretty sharp as well.

5.  Roger Clemens (Yankees)


21.  Miguel Tejada (Athletics)

68.  Shawn Green (Dodgers)

95.  Cliff Floyd (Mets)

96.  Cliff Floyd (Mets)

Now, I obviously have no idea what happened here - both of the Cliff Floyd cards are different.  Both have different front photos.  Since this is the first pack of 2003 Upper Deck MLB Honor Roll, I have no idea if it is a normal thing to have multiple versions of the same player or not (I just looked it up, apparently there are two versions of each player in the base set).  I guess future packs will help to clear that up. 

The back of the pack does mention short print cards, including regular short prints seeded 1 in 6 packs but (of course) Upper Deck's website doesn't clarify which cards are the actual short prints.  If anyone has any information about that, I would appreciate it!

  2. Interesting! That doesn't make a bit of sense to me why Upper Deck would do that...but I guess I see where Topps got their ideas for the 2008 Stadium Club set!
