The 1993 Upper Deck SP Baseball Hobby box was a premium product for its time and is particularly notable for featuring the rookie cards of future Hall of Famer Derek Jeter and Johnny Damon.
Here's a breakdown of what you' typically find in a hobby box:
Configuration: 24 packs per box, with 12 cards per pack.
Set size: The base set consists of 290 cards.
Key Rookies: The most sought-after cards are the Derek Jeter and Johnny Damon rookie cards, which are part of the Foil Prospects subset.
Inserts: The sole insert set in 1993 SP Baseball is called Platinum Power, featuring 20 of the league's top sluggers. These were the first die-cut inserts in the baseball hobby and were inserted at a rate of 1:9 packs.
Condition Sensitivity: The all-foil fronts of the cards, especially the Foil Prospects, are prone to chipping and corner wear, making high-grade examples challenging to find.
