2007 Upper Deck Masterpieces

Way back in 2007 I was sent a pack of these cards and have tried earnestly to get my hands on some more without much success. Its now 2009 and I was pleasantly surprised to find a blaster cheaply on e-bayUS.
The base set consists of 90 cards.
There are inserts: Captured on Canvas, Captured on Canvas Bronze, Captured on Canvas Green, 5x7 Box Toppers and Strokes of Genius
There are parallel sets: Blue Steel, Hades, Rusted, Ironised, Bronze Ore, Black Linen, Deep Blue Linen, Green Linen, Persian Blue Linen, Red Linen, Artists Proofs, Serious Black, Pinot Red, Winsdor Green, Celestial Blue and Urban Grey.

Pack 1:
#23 Roy Campanella Dodgers
#24 Jackie Robinson Dodgers
#37 Miguel Cabrea Marlins
#49 Albert Pujols Cardinals

Pack 2:
#35 Joe Mauer Twins
#46 Michael Jordan White Sox
#55 Cal Ripkin Jnr Orioles
#81 Chris Chambliss Yankees
Pack 3:
#22 Babe Ruth Red Sox

#68 Akinori Iwamura Bay Rays
#85 1969 World Series Champions Mets
