2015 Upper Deck Fleer Retro Marvel — lot of 10 — four 1993 SkyBox design autographs (Coipel, Zeck, Perkins ×2) plus four 1982 Fleer and two 1960 Fleer design inserts
Ten cards from the harder tiers of Upper Deck’s 2015 Fleer Retro Marvel set. Four are hard-signed autographs on the 1993 SkyBox Marvel Universe design, the scarcer autograph tier at about one in forty-four packs: #25 Sentry signed by Olivier Coipel, #6 She-Hulk signed by Mike Zeck, and two copies of #10 Captain America signed by Mike Perkins. Four are the 1982 Fleer design inserts on grey stock, one in forty packs: #15 Blade, #8 Iron Fist, #16 Luke Cage and #21 Mysterio. Two are the 1960 Fleer design inserts, also one in forty packs: #20 Falcon and #13 Hawkeye. Raw and ungraded, each in a toploader.
About the set
Fleer Retro Marvel, released by Upper Deck in July 2015, is the set that reissued the great 1990s card designs with new art: 1994 Flair, 1993 SkyBox Marvel Universe, 1990 Impel, 1995 Marvel Metal, plus two much older Fleer baseball designs from 1960 and 1982. Five cards to a pack, twenty packs to a box, with a sketch card, a Precious Metal Gems parallel and about three autographs in every box.
The retro inserts are not equal. The Flair, SkyBox and Impel designs fall every few packs, while the 1982 Fleer and 1960 Fleer designs, printed on grey cardboard stock with baseball-style stat backs, are seeded at about one in forty packs, one every two boxes. The autographs work the same way: base-design autographs come about one in seven packs, but the autographs on the 1993 SkyBox design are closer to one in forty-four.
