Does anyone know if there is a way to differentiate between the Italian and Spanish of the blank-backed Award Winner Holograms from 1991-92 Upper Deck European? The only text I can see on the front of my Jordan Scoring Leader is in English, so I don't know which one I have, or if the exact same cards were inserted into both languages (which I suspect is true).

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

I know the base set cards are completely identical except for the difference in language on the back, so my guess would be that the inserts are identical as well, so for blank backed ones with no language difference, your guess is as good as anybody's as to which it came from. The ones I have, I have no idea which set they are from. I got them in a mixed lot at Shopko and it had cards from the Italian and Spanish sets, so I have no clue if the Hologram cards I got are from one set or the other, or even some of both. I have multiples of a couple of them, or I might have one of each different set of some of them, who knows. |

My holos came straight from a box of Spanish cards and there is nothing on them to differentiate, as far as I can see. |

Holograms are identical.
1-200 have different languages at the back of the card (But I ***think*** that the fronts are identical).

So I decided to go hunting through the massive amount of boxes in my closet that I haven't gone through in 25 years and found a complete set of 91-92 ud international Spanish Basketball I must have put in pages back in the 90s. So that sparked my interest in trying to get the Italian set but upon looking online at the boxes for sale, they have both Spanish and Italian versions of the word new (Nuevo!/Nuovo!) on the same box. How can you differentiate which set is in the box?

Can you post a picture of the box?

Just asked a cousin (in Madrid) says it's Euro edition but could be what he has, the box is in English and Spanish, could be another one out there as well

Per the Packaging page for the Italian version, I believe it's the Italian version. Maybe the Spanish version doesn't have the Italian on the box.

On the second to last picture on Ebay, from top to bottom, languages are English, Italian and Spanish.
