It’s Throwback Thursday so let’s go back through Upper Deck’s trading card history and come up with a fun giveaway. Recently Derek Jeter surprised everyone by announcing on Facebook that 2014 would be his final year. Derek Jeter has served as a spokesman to Upper Deck and a friend over the years so everyone here at headquarters took a moment to reflect after seeing the message on Jeter’s great career, but for us, it all started with his rookie card. And while his 1993 SP Authentic Jeter Rookie card is probably his most beloved card, most people have his 1993 Upper Deck Rookie card in their collection.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane oh wait it’s a pop up, I better catch it.
Dang, my future looks bright!
Ugh! If only my rookie initiation didn’t include hiding my sunglasses!
No A-Rod, I got it!
5 Rings! Which one should I catch first?
Dang that Sun is bright where’s my sunglasses at.
I can’t wait for this ball to come down so I can retire and go to Disneyworld
“WOW! My future is bright! I shoulda wore sunglasses!”
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Derek Jeter!
I was told there would be Bronx Bombers here, but all I see is pigeons??
My future is bright!
I need some shade my bright future is blinding me.
“I hope this glove can hold more retirement gifts than what Mariano got!”
“I really like the way my new glove sparkles in this light!”
Come on Ruth, hit it already, the sun is making my glove hot.
“Is that you up there Mantle? Yeah, I’m coming for you…”
“Please oh Please God let me be in the Big Leagues for 20 or more Years”
Wow! These helium filled gloves are great! Hope it doesn’t slip off my hand.
My glove keeps trying to float away. I wish I had a bunch of World Series rings to way it down.
“Someone is taking my picture. It would be cool if it was for a baseball card.”
Is that Steinbrenner bungie jumping out of his Spaceship with the World Series Trophies wearing Ruths jersey? Bold!!!!
See that? It’s my Hall of Fame plaque 25 years from now.
Damn my future is looking bright.
All that Brightness must be All the Diamonds That I am going to get.
It is my chance to shine and be mentioned as one of the greatest Yankees of all- time!
all i see is rings up there!
Only if there was something I could wear on my head to keep the sun out. Maybe I will just use this glove instead.
Jeter misses the logo, Homerun Upper Deck!
I’ve trained a bald Eagle to catch pop ups and bring them to me look here he comes
Even as a third grader, Derek was still a huge Yankees fan.
Winner..
Some said I couldn’t reach the top. Now look at me, I’m up in the sky!
“Did you just see that? I think it hit a bird!”
I told them I would be one of the greatest and they said only when pigs fly! Oh crap look their flying!
I’m gonna win a trophy one day. It’s gonna be this tall.
Who wrote that on the inside of my glove?
Hiya, Me. Steinbrenner!
Derek Jeter has been playing baseball so long that sunglasses didn’t exist when he was a rookie.
If only I could bend my leg the other way I’d be the letter J!
I see the Hall of Fame from here
Is that… Steinbrenner’s ego? I knew it was big but this is ridiculous!
My futures so bright I think if might need shades!!!!
Immediately after this photo was taken, Derek Jeter invented a portable sun blocking device known today as sunglasses.
Awesome! Can’t believe she wrote her number on my glove!
Wow.. NASA named a space shuttle in my honor.. The ‘JETERIEN’.
Futures so bright, I oughta wear shades!
What’s All the Fuss About
Didn’t You Win Five World Series Rings
