Sure to be of big interest to those collectors chasing autographs and looking to add a large grouping of signatures to their collection, offered here we present this complete set of 1994-95 Upper Deck Be A Player hockey cards that included the complete 177-card autograph set as well as the 180-card base set and insert sets, including those of the Gretzky’s 99 All-Stars and Up Close & Personal offerings. Originating from the the former NHLPA Director of Licensing with all the cards housed in 9-pocket pages in an NHLPA binder, big names in both stature and value include those of Wayne Gretzky (EX-MT to NM or better - strong autograph), Ray Bourque (EX to EX-MT - top border ding - runny autograph), Teemu Selanne (EX-MT to NM - strong autograph), Brian Leetch (EX to EX-MT - bottom edge and corner wear - runny but good autograph), Steve Yzerman (EX to EX-MT - edge and corner wear - good autograph), Brendan Shanahan (EX to EX-MT - edge wear and bottom right corner ding - good autograph), Martin Brodeur (EX-MT to NM - good autograph) and Paul Kariya (EX-MT to EX-MT+ - top right corner ding - weaker signature) with all having had a COA sticker affixed to the reverse of the card. For the rest of the autograph set, appearing to be in a fairly uniform condition range of EX-MT to NM or better on some examples and including names such as Gilmour, Hawerchuk, Foote, Roenick, Roberts, Draper and numerous others, all the autographs remain legible and in a good condition with some a bit lighter than others. For the non-autographed cards, all appear to be in a uniform condition range of EX-MT to NM while the binder itself remains in good condition while exhibiting some handling wear and age.
