Almost every instance of the artist Douglas Shuler's name was misspelled as "Schuler".The misprints in Unlimited are identical to the misprints in Beta. The "Unlimited Edition" label appears on the booster boxes, decks, and booster packs. Unlimited was the first set to be officially titled as something other than just Magic: The Gathering. Wizards of the Coast instructed Carta Mundi to change the black border on the card frame to white, in order to maintain the collecting value of the initial Limited print run. The cards were sold in 60-card starter decks and 15-card boosters. Cards were available from mid January 1994 through mid March 1994. The print run was announced to be 40 million cards, the largest yet. This set was released on December 1, 1993, after Beta had sold out as quickly as Alpha had.

They found out that this was technically too difficult, and had to settle for what they considered to be the much less aesthetically satisfying white. The original plan of the creators had been to mark unlimited sets with a gray border, not white.
