Modernizing the hobby with high-quality card stock, improved photography and tamper-proof anti-counterfeiting holograms, the 1989 Upper Deck baseball set ushered in the new era of cards, with the landmark set containing the rookie cards of Ken Griffey Jr., Randy Johnson, John Smoltz and Gary Sheffield. This lot offers a 1989 Upper Deck Low Series unopened wax box certified by BBCE, along with a Low Series partial box with 18 unopened packs. Featuring 36 packs per box with 15 cards per pack, the unopened box offers 540 cards, while the unopened packs from the partial box contribute 270 cards, for a grand total of 810 cards. In beautiful condition sporting light wear, the unopened box is shrink-wrapped by BBCE with their label affixed to the underside, while the partial box shows wear and some minor dust staining, with the box top detached but present, with no issues for the packs. Both items originate from a fresh-to-the-market hoard of unopened material, with all complete boxes from the hoard that were sent to BBCE returned certified unopened, with a portion of the collection sold in the Fall 2021 auction and the balance offered in our Winter 2022 auction.
