Donruss Sports Legends
Posted by Tuff stuff

It's always fun to break open a new product in the sports card hobby. And when I'm talking about new product here, I'm talking about:

Donruss Sports Legends
  • 5 cards/pack
  • 10 packs/box ($85)

The idea behind this set is to feature, well, sports legends. These include athletes in all sports, from bowling to gymnastics to pool. The allure, of course, is to snag some great patch and autographed cards of some of these legends. Personally, I think getting a card of Dolph Schayes is cool in and of itself.

Anyway, here are some of the "hits" from this box:

  • Professional bowler Pete Weber auto (numbered to 458)
  • Olympic softball pitcher Cat Osterman auto (Numbered to 493)
  • Rick Majerus sweater patch card (numbered to 400 - image the number of patch cards could be made from a Majerus sweater)
  • Elvin Hayes patch card (numbered to 250)
  • Sheryl Swoopes red parallel (numbered to 250)
  • Eddie Murray blue parallel (numbered to 100)

Other inserts numbered to 1,000 included a "College Heroes" Dan Issel, "Museum Collection" Cale Yarborough and a "Champions" Jean Cruguet.

For the rest of the break, watch the video below:
