Flashback Product of the Week: 2007 TK Legacy Penn State Premiere Edition I
Card companies rise and fall. Some stick around, while others are here one day and gone the next. Its been this way since the hobby began. When you think of the major card manufacturers, companies like Topps, Upper Deck, Donruss, Playoff, Panini, and Leaf come to mind first. There are a lot of smaller manufacturers that may not be around anymore, but still have quite the following. One of those companies is TK Legacy.
For a large chunk of the 2000’s, TK Legacy released a handful of sets. Most of these products were centered around specific college teams such as Michigan, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Penn State. They also made some bowling boxes too.
Before TK Legacy shut its doors, they issued a full product surrounding Penn State football. Unlike other schools, this was the only Penn State product they made. The Premiere Edition was the only edition. Some schools had four or five products made. Boxes contain eight packs each housing an autograph or sketch card. Key autographs to look for include John Cappelletti, Lydell Mitchell, Lenny Moore, Shane Conlan, DJ Dozier, Curt Warner, Blair Thomas, Todd Blackledge, Chris Bahr, and Matt Bahr. For a lot of these guys this is the only product they ever had cards in. I’m sorry to say that Joe Paterno isn’t in here at all. For a guy who barely has any cards, this would have been the perfect product for him.
The cards are fairly basic looking. No fancy graphics or foil. In my opinion, TK Legacy had some of the best football sketch cards the hobby has ever seen. A few Ohio State sketches of Troy Smith and their mascot Brutus recently sold for $100.00 to $200.00 each. Sealed boxes of their Penn State product sell for $140.00. Some of TK Legacy’s boxes have been known to sell for up to $300.00. I think the reason why TK Legacy cards are still so popular is because they included players that don’t have a lot of cards. Die-hard fans of those schools want them.
