Description
1997 Select is a 200-card set released in two series of 150 and 50 cards. The 150-card "Lo-Series," released in April 1997, set contains 100 "Red" cards and 50 "Blue" cards -- which are short-printed and seeded at the rate of one-per-pack.
A "Hi-Number" Series was issued in December 1997. Similar to the hi-number cards released in the early days of Upper Deck, 1997 Select Hi-Number re-issued all 150 "Low-Series" cards, and added an addition 50 cards. Each five-card Hi-Series pack contained two Lo-Series Red cards, one Lo-Series Blue card, one Hi-Number card, and a "Select Company" parallel.
Distribution
Lo/Hi Series: 24 packs per box, five cards per pack (MSRP: $2.99).
