Upper Deck Unveils Autograph Redemption Plans for NHL Spring Expo

Upper Deck has provided a nice incentive for collectors ripping boxes of 2007-08 NHL Fleer Hot Prospects or 2007-08 UD Ice at the NHL Spring Expo in Toronto on May 2 through 4. Collectors who visit Upper Deck booth and open a box of either product will receive a free "Priority Signings" autograph card exclusive to the show. Among the possible autographs: Wayne Gretzky, Patrick Roy and Sidney Crosby. In fact, the checklist is a who's who of NHL stars past and present. Honestly.

Story continues below.

Each "Priority Signings" card is sequentially numbered. There is a limit of one card per collector per day and is valid only while supplies last.

Upper Deck will also be holding a daily draw for an NHL All-Star Vinyl figure but the winner must be at the show to collect their prize. The California-based company also promises to give away other prizes throughout the day such as cards and die cast vehicles.
