If you are looking for the first serial-numbered rookie card of #1 Draft Pick LeBron James, look no further than Inspirations. James is part of the Draft Pick Redemption program, with his redemption, and those of the top lottery picks, serial #’d to just 499 copies.
On average, a box of Inspirations should yield 3-4 Draft Pick Redemptions, with all picks in both rounds represented. The cards contain a scratch-off area that yields a unique code underneath that can be entered into the redemption program on www.UpperDeck.com for the purpose of claiming your card.
In addition to the redemptions, look for numerous levels of game-used jersey cards, serial-numbered to various levels. There are also serial-numbered autographs and dual-autographs, as well. We were fortunate enough to pull a Chris Wilcox autographed base card, serial numbered to 1,600.
Inspirations has been very hot on the secondary market, thanks to the unequaled popularity of this years draft class, most specifically LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony.
Following in the footsteps of last year’s debut, 2003/04 Upper Deck Inspirations dared to be great – and it is!
