First off, I can't say that I liked the stock this product was printed on. My guess as a printer is that this particular stock is easier to run through the press, keeping the presses rinning for a large project.

The quality of the set is generally great with the exception of the filler cardsI didn't really love the idea of 3 Favres or Sanders but give them credit for producing a set that was anything but safe. At the very least, all of the first round draft choices were included, at least the ones who were signed. The colors were bright and to me, this was the first generation of HD images.

I believe this set to be an important piece of NFL history. Lots of stars and HOFers. As to the inserts, I think we all knew that UD would be doing a Heroes set after the success of the Jackson set in baseball. The GB holograms were first rate for that era. The SP cards were a breakthrough idea at the time. They weren't just commerative cards, they were difficult to find to boot. I'm guessing that one or the other came every 72 packs.

All in all, no matter how much anyone criticizes this set, it was far and away the best set of 1991.

This set is one of my favorite sets in my collection. It has a lot of good players and cards like Rod Woodson, Thurman Thomas, Tim Brown, and it has cool inserts like the game breakers holograms which I got two. I also completed the entire football heroes set of Joe Montana and Broadway Joe. I got a box sealed box of 91 Upper Deck on amazon. I would not recommend this because I got way too many repeats. I will sell some of them. If you want a card from the set email me at bsu612@gmail.com I will sell for 25 cents a pop thank you and have a great day. If you send me the money in an envelope please write address info in pencil. I will tell you the address when you email me.

My review of this set will be short and sweet, this set represents the 1990 era of over production. It lists at $20.00 for 700 cards. Although the usual HOF players are included, once again, 3/4 of the value in this set revolves around 3 Brett Favre rookie cards. Nice action shots are about as positive as I can be of this set. Card stock is weak as well as the feel. Other than that, I really can't complain, this set cost me a grand total of $1.26! Yes, this is not a typo, it cost me $1.26!
