Upper Deck, one of the leading sports card manufacturers, is coming out with a special boxed set to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Boston Bruins. Known as one of the most storied franchises in sports, the Bruins have an impressive history that is now being honored through a collector’s dream set. The Upper Deck Boston Bruins Centennial Box Set is set to hit the shelves on Wednesday, Dec. 6, offering fans and collectors a unique opportunity to own a piece of hockey history.
The centennial box set includes a comprehensive base set of 100 cards, featuring a mix of the Bruins’ legendary players and current stars. From the greats of the past like Bobby Orr and Ray Bourque to the current heroes like Patrice Bergeron and Zdeno Chara, this set is a true celebration of the team’s rich history. Each base card is available in two parallel versions: yellow and gold spectrum, adding an element of excitement to the collecting experience.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. In addition to the base set, the box set also offers five different types of inserts and parallels. One of the most intriguing insert sets is called “Beantown Classics,” which pays tribute to 20 of the greatest Bruins players from various eras. From Eddie Shore to Phil Esposito, these cards capture the essence of the team’s legendary past.
For autograph enthusiasts, this centennial box set is a must-have. A total of fifty current and former Bruins players have signed cards for this set, making it even more special. However, finding an autograph will be no easy task, as they are included in only one out of every ten sets. Some signatures, especially from legendary players like Bobby Orr and Ray Bourque, will be particularly elusive and highly sought after by collectors.
With its unique blend of base cards, inserts, parallels, and autographs, the Upper Deck Boston Bruins Centennial Box Set offers Bruins fans and sports card collectors an unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of hockey history. Priced at around $50 per set, this centennial celebration is both affordable and valuable, making it a must-have for fans who want to commemorate the Boston Bruins’ remarkable journey.
Whether you’re a die-hard Bruins fan or a passionate collector, this special boxed set is sure to bring joy and excitement. As the Bruins celebrate their 100th anniversary, Upper Deck has created a fitting tribute to this iconic franchise. So mark your calendar for Wednesday, Dec. 6, and be ready to grab your own Upper Deck Boston Bruins Centennial Box Set.
