Seventh Edition Magic The Gathering Cards
7th Edition was a Magic: The Gathering set printed in 2001. It is the
only core set since Alpha to have introduced all-new art for every
card. A white-bordered set, it was first available on April 2, 2001.
The set contained 350 cards. It was the first Core Set to introduce
black-bordered foils. The expansion symbol was a stylized 7.
Despite being an advanced level set 7th Edition contained a
separate basic subset for new players similar to the products that were
previously offered as Starter 2000. Cards that appeared in the 7th
Edition Starter special pre-constructed theme decks did not appear in
boosters. This would be the last starter level product released by
Wizards of the Coast.
7th Edition was the last base set printed in the 'old' frame. 8th
Edition introduced the modern card frame. 7th Edition was the last base
set released prior to the last set of the then-current block. 7th
Edition was released before Apocalypse, but starting with 8th Edition
the base set editions (now known as Core Set editions) were released
after the last set of the then-current block and before the first set
of the subsequent block.
