Upper Deck, In The Game Gear Up for Fall Expo

Thursday November 6, 2008

The semiannual Toronto Sportcard & Memorabilia Expo - also known simply as the Spring or Fall Expo depending on the season - is a great show for collectors of all sports. Make no mistake about it though, the focus is on hockey.

Along with an autograph lineup of former NHL greats, just about every kind of hockey card and collectible under the sun can be found at the show. That includes some autographed cards and memorabilia cards that are only available at the Expo, courtesy of wrapper redemption programs at the booths of the card manufacturers.

It's a pretty sweet deal to grab cards like Upper Deck's Priority Signings autographs (this year's Wayne Gretzky card is pictured here) or In The Game's Ultimate Redemption game-used or autographed cards just for opening product at the company booths. Get the scoop on these programs and other Expo details by following the profile link below.

Update: Upper Deck passed along images of 16 of the Priority Signings cards available at next week's show. I turned them into this Priority Signings Card Gallery so you can see some of the cards the company will be handing out.
