UD’s All-Time Greats packs plenty of, well, greats
By Chris Olds | Basketball Editor
Upper Deck‘s latest high-end line of college basketball cards arrives on Friday packing a player-centric configuration and some big names in every box of 2011 All-Time Greats.
As previously reported, the product will include a melded version of Letterman and UD Glass cards with a strong crop of autographs in the product, but the real allure is the autograph checklist that includes just 20 players.
That means there’s a pretty solid chance at finding a Michael Jordan or LeBron James autograph inside the boxes, which will contain just four cards. The catch? Each four-card box will contain three base cards and one autograph — each of the same player.
However, there will be mystery packs to be found as well. Those will include several players inside.
Also to be found are an All-Time Nine autograph booklet as well as Legacy Booklets, which pair a modern star with a cut of a past legend.

Interesting I didn’t see any mention of a price? This is pretty hight-end. $ 200-$500 per box?
It is priced at about $300. You can get some more details from UDs Terry Melia from a few weeks back on Cardboard Connection Radio: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/cardboardconnectionradio/2011/05/28/card-corner-club-radio
