1990-91 Upper Deck NHL Hockey Cards Box Break - Jaromir Jagr Rookie Card

This week we’re doing a hockey box break, featuring Upper Deck’s 1st hockey offering - it’s 1990-91 Upper Deck Hockey Cards!
This is a great looking set with quality photos and a very clean design. The set also has an insert card set of holograms, although the holograms we found were kinda hard to identify, especially without anything on the back of the card.
LOTS of Rookie Cards here too, led by Jaromir Jagr, who was missing from the 1990-91 Bowman box we opened a few months ago. The other key rookies include Jeremy Roenick, Mats Sundin, Mike Modano, Ed Belfour, Mike Richter, Rob Blake, Alexander Mogilny, and a ton more!
The best part is that you can find boxes of these cards for $20 or less (I got mine for $19 shipped on eBay). For a junk wax era offering, there’s a lot here - nice looking cards, tons of rookies, and even an insert set. This is a definite recommend for those looking to collect 30 year old cards on a budget.
As always, please subscribe if you like what you see…or tell a friend about us.
Have a great weekend and take care!

Thanks for watching! Glad I could bring back some memories. So many great players in these sets.

[@williamhann5380]

By far my favourite set. These were the cards that got me started in the hobby and back into the hobby after many years. So many great names and photos.

[@WayBackSportsCards]

One million percent agreed! This might be one of the best junk wax products you can get - great roster of players and rookie cards, and some great looking cards. And technically the holograms count as an insert, so you have those too.

[@starscream5263]

Love these cards; just bought some Modano, Roenick and Jagr; can still get them for cheap.

[@WayBackSportsCards]

Completely agree. Dollar for dollar, this might be the best value in junk wax era cards. It’s at least in the conversation.

When Quality Control was actually a thing for @upperdeck

[@WayBackSportsCards]

Yep, they all seemed to have those issues.

[@TheBillaro]

i see these boxes for 70 bucks on ebay now

[@WayBackSportsCards]

They’re great cards, but I don’t think they’re worth anywhere close to that.

[@TheBillaro]

@@WayBackSportsCards thank you!

[@travisdecheno5670]

Dont get why these are pretty much worthless. Sure they printed a boatload but they are still pretty much only decent rookies for some hall of famers. Im sure the mid 80's cards were printed almost just as much. And its not like the are SUPER common. I opened 5 boxes of these about 10 years ago and got 1 Jagr and maximum 2 each of the others....

[@WayBackSportsCards]

I agree with you. I do think these cards should be more valuable based on the reasons you gave. But to me, this is all the more reason for collectors to take advantage and buy some. This is a great looking set with tons of HOFers and key rookie cards.
