How I Arrived at the Hobby Score

This card received a 79 overall Hobby Score.

The 2001 Upper Deck Albert Pujols rookie offers a clean design with sharp photography and full MLB licensing. Upper Deck was still considered a premium brand in the early 2000s, and their base rookies held solid market value—though they were never quite as dominant as Bowman or Topps Chrome in long-term hobby prestige.

The card is relatively affordable and widely graded, but it lacks the visual flair or flagship status to push it into elite territory. It remains a strong secondary rookie option for collectors who want a fully licensed, non-Topps Pujols rookie with historical importance and solid aesthetic appeal.
