Dave & Adam’s Acquire Rare 90’s Football Box

Dave & Adam’s Card World acquires a lot of unique products.  Recently they became the owner of a sealed box of 1997 Upper Deck Legends Football.  This is one of my favorite products from the 90’s, and finding a sealed box is quite rare.

Each box contains (20) packs in which you will find (2) retired/HOF autographs.  The base set consists of 208 cards, plus you have some nice inserts such as Marquee Matchups and Big Game Hunters.  At the time this product was released, packs cost around $5.00 each.  That comes to about $100.00 for a box, perhaps a little less.  Over the years, 1997 Upper Deck Legends Football has become very popular driving up the price of the autographs.  This in return drives up the price of a sealed box if you can find one.  If your feeling nostalgic and have some deep pockets, this box can be yours for the low cost of $1,199.95.  Its on sale and I believe they lowered the price after they initially listed it.

I would love to bust a box of this stuff, but that’s way out of my price range.  My first autographed card I pulled from a pack came from ’97 UD Legends Football.  It was of Detroit Lions RB Lem Barney.  I also remember pulling a Joe Montana Big Game Hunters insert.  If anyone decides to pull the trigger on this bad boy, I want to see what comes out.

PHOTOS: The 2010 National Sports Collectors Convention

The National is by far the greatest show of the year.  I saw a lot of people, opened a ton of packs, and participated in many of the wrapper redemption programs provided by the manufacturers.  I even had time to watch the Orioles take on the White Sox Friday night.  The marketing was much better this year, not only for The National, but for other companies too.  There were T-shirts, cups, and all sorts of promos flying around the Baltimore Convention Center.  Check out some of my photos.

This was one of the coolest artifacts on display at The National.  This is the bat Cap Anson used in 1897.  I had never seen anything of Anson’s before.

This has nothing to do with The National, but Pickles Pub was right next to the hotel I stayed at.  Every night the place was packed.

Dave & Adams Card World Contest Mailday

Last week Dave & Adams Card World held a few contests where you could win the contents of the boxes they opened.  With well over 100 entries I was the lucky winner of the 2009 Topps Finest Baseball box break.  The M-O-J-O must be with me because I won the Ryan Howard ’09 Topps Sketch card from Mario over at Wax Heaven a few weeks ago 🙂  Take a look at what I won.  Shoot me an e-mail if your interested in anything.

 

Thanks D & A Card World!
