Worst hockey card set

1991-92 Ultimate hockey

This 90-card set was released to commemorate the first-round draft picks and was the first set ever released under the Ultimate Trading Card  Co brand.  On Las Vegas Boulevard, a street better known simply as ``the Strip`` sat a sports memorabilia store, Smokey`s Baseball Card Shop( Smokey Scheinman), across the street from the Aladdin Hotel & Casino.

Anyhow back to the question at hand.





An assortment of the great cards in this set.



I don't remember what I paid for the first set but I picked up 6 sets at a garage sale for 25 cents each.

  1. I have to agree with you. That set pretty much sucked!
