When was the last time you saw a complete Alpha set?
Here is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own the rarest official set in Magic: The Gathering history. Each Alpha rare was printed an estimated 3000 times, which means that at the very most, in 1993, there were only 3000 of these made!
Most of the cards in this set are NM- to NM condition. The most questionable card is an EX condition Underground Sea. All other big money cards are in at least NM- condition.
Premiered at Origins '93 in July of that year, Magic: The Gathering; was first released to the general public on August 5, 1993. The Alpha set consisted of 295 cards. After the Alpha print run of 2.6 million cards, some corrections were made and the remaining 7.3 million cards were released as the Beta set (302 cards).

I bought this set from Troll and Toad in November (2007). Most of the Power Nine and Dual Lands were played (not near mint minus as indicated) - but otherwise a nice piece of MTG history. I have since upgraded the played cards and acquired a few Alpha Starter Decks and Rulebooks to complete the NM/M set and plan to submit for grading later this year.
