Magic the Gathering Alpha Booster Box
The first cards for Magic: The Gathering. look for cards like Black Lotus, 5 Moxes, Ancestral Recall, Time Walk, Timetwister, 9 Dual Lands Chaos Orb, Gauntlet of Might and many more
Limited Edition Alpha, or more commonly Alpha, is the first release of Limited Edition, the first Core Set of Magic: The Gathering. It includes 295 cards and was released at Origins in July 1993 with a small run of 2.6 million cards. It did not receive much exposure beyond the West Coast of the United States. Beta was released shortly after Alpha sold out.
Alpha cards can easily be distinguished from Beta and all other cards by their more rounded corners. Early tournament rules required that all cards must appear unmarked without the use of protective sleeves, and the unique corners of Alpha cards originally made them marked cards in a deck not entirely comprised of Alpha cards. This initially made them less desirable and thus less valuable than Beta and even Unlimited cards.
Alpha did not have a specific storyline, although the cards had a lot of flavor built into them based on the premise that players took on the role of a planeswalker who summoned creatures and cast spells in a duel against another planeswalker.
We pride ourselves on selling clean, unsearched packs that come to you straight from untampered boxes.
