Brag Photo of the Week: Michael Jordan Breaking Through
Posted by: | CommentsSince last week’s Jordan Art piece got such a good response, I figured I’d share another prime UDA Jordan piece with you. I doubt the photos can do this one justice after seeing it in person, but I’ll try.

This is an autographed “Breaking Through” piece featuring Michael Jordan. The ball you see here actually busts through the frame.

And a better look at the autograph while I’m at it.

You may have seen similar pieces from UDA in the past, but this one seriously stands out. It’s big, the design is sleek, and it really has a lifelike feel that dominates a room.
If you’re a big fan of the Bulls, Jordan or basketball in general, it’s definitely a great centerpiece for your home. Click here to check it out in the online store!

Brag Photo of the Week: Jordan Art
Posted by: | CommentsIf you’ve been with UpperDeckBlog.com from day one, you may remember our very first Brag Photo of the Week: it was a shot of the United Center floor before it got divided up and shipped out for our unique memorabilia pieces.


Well, with a select few pieces of that floor, we did something even more unique. Check it out:

This is a piece of the same floor, featuring unique art by Jolene Jessie, and autographed by MJ himself.


As you can tell by the numbering, quanitites are extremely limited, but we do have some left. Click here to check it out in the online store!

Brag Photo of the Week: Super Bowl Tickets
Posted by: | CommentsHey, what’s up? I’ve got Super Bowl tickets.

Ok, they’re not actually mine. But I did at least get to hold them for a few moments.
No, these (and other seats) are going to various folks who earned them, such as the winner of our 20th Anniversary promotion from last year, and our Ultimate Fan contest winner.
Upper Deck contest winners will be there, but which two teams will they be watching in The Big Game? We’ll find out this weekend.

Brag Photo of the Week: Does Whatever a Spider Can
Posted by: | CommentsEvery day I come to work, I walk up our big staircase, and I’m greeted by this guy:

Yeah. That’s our life-sized Spider-Man.
Here’s a better look at him ready to shoot webs at intruders (or anyone who comes in late, I’d imagine):

I know what you’re thinking: “Why does a sports card company have a giant Spider-Man in their office?” Well, aside from our sports cards, we also produce games like the World of Warcraft TCG. And this week, we launched a new website for our Marvel lineup in 2010: PlayMarvel.com

Brag Photo of the Week: Bats
Posted by: | Comments
What’s that? Bats.
I know it’s chilly in most of the country right now, so it’s all about football playoffs, hockey and basketball. But look, it’s 68 degrees today in Carlsbad. Perfect weather for baseball.
Oh, the bats. Fine. You want a closer look?

That’s a lot of bats.
Ok, one step closer. But then we’re done.

These bats are all signed by Ken Griffey Jr., who will be playing what is likely to be his final season in 2010. With the additions of Chone Figgins, Cliff Lee and Milton Bradley (and some key subtractions to the Angels), it’s looking like it may be a playoff season for Seattle in The Kid’s swan song. Want one? Click here to get one! Note that some editions are limited edition and numbered (like the ones you see here), while others are open (not numbered).
We’ve been with Grifffey for his whole career, and our partnership with him in this industry is legendary. He doesn’t sign too frequently, preferring to get it all done in one sitting: this makes having all these pieces in one place that much more impressive.
As far as our upcoming season is concerned, we’ve got plenty of exciting products in store for our baseball line in 2010: we’ve got the stars, the quality, and have earned the reputation for leading the category over the last 20 years. Stay tuned.
