Description

2003 Victory is a 200 card set released, exclusive to retail, in February, 2003. After four years as a large but no-frills, insert-less product, Upper Deck dramatically changed Victory into a multi-fractured, multi-paralleled, set with a collectible card game element. The first 100 cards comprise the short set while the last 100 cards were all short-printed to various quantities. The corners on all cards are rounded to look like a playing card.

These changes were not well received by collectors, and as a result, Upper Deck discontinued the line after 2003 -- although it remains part of their hockey line.

2003 Victory did contain the first-ever MLB licensed "True" rookie card of Hideki Matsui.

Distribution

36 cards in a box, six cards per pack.
