A Piece of Artifacts?

Dear Lazy Web,

Could you clear something up for me? I am confused about this year’s Upper Deck Artifacts line. I’ve purchased a couple blasters of 2008 UD Artifacts at the big boxes already, but just last week I was in one of the local Hobby stores that was hocking boxes and packs of 2008 UD A Piece of History. I was confused. They appear to be the same card. Are they? Have Artifacts gone the way of the dodo? Is “A Piece of History = Artifacts” the new math?

I’d investigate this further on Upper Deck’s website, but it’s so woefully unusable that I’d rather eat a handful of mulch than look for anything useful there. I’m counting on you, my smart, intelligent readers to clear things up. I haven’t been following this very closely, so I may have missed a glaringly obvious announcement. Any help is appreciated.

    UD Artifacts is the retail version of A Piece of History. Same base set, different names.

    @Chris - Thanks for the clarification. Has there been any reasons for this change announced? Is the Artifacts line being discontinued for the A Piece of History line?
