Hey everyone. I'm having trouble tracking down information on a joint set put out by Upper Deck and Pinnacle in either 1997 or 1998. I believe it was possibly some sort of cereal or soda set, and it came in a base set of silver-foil cards along with a gold-foil parallel set that you got through a mail-in promotion.

I believe this is so because I've got a full gold set, and a random assortment of the silver-foil cards, and I seem to recall putting in for the mail offer.

The first 40 cards in the set feature the Upper Deck logo and are cards of NBA players, with stats from the 96-97 season on the back.

The rest of the cards were Pinnacle branded and feature WNBA players, with stats from the 1997 season. I believe these were cards 41-56, but I seem to have misplaced a few - probably the Houston Comets as I think I took them out on an autograph hunt once.

Anybody know what these were? I can type out most of the checklist if that helps, and I'll scan a few if need be.
