Bolstered by a successful 2006 debut, Press Pass Legends Basketball today makes its highly anticipated return to market for 2007. With 18-pack hobby boxes delivering at least five on-card autographs and one jersey card, collectors will likely find the new installment meets the lofty expectations created by last season's premiere. "We expect Press Pass Legends Basketball to be one of the top products released this year," says Nick Matijevich, Product Manager for Press Pass, Inc. "While continuing our tradition of delivering collectors player-touched, hard autographs, we've taken this set to the next level with tremendous retired content. Player collectors and school collectors alike are going to be wowed by the amazing collegiate photography we've been able to come up with, some of it originating as far back as the 1940s. "After having one of our Maravich cards sell for more than $8,000 last year, we know that fans are going to be salivating over the chance to pull one of his Center Court Cuts again this year." The product offers collectors the chance to obtain not only all-time greats from the past, but the legends of the future as well. In addition to being to find autographs of top rookies for 2007, such as Brandan Wright, Acie Law, and Nick Young, the set will also include the likes of Maravich, Bill Russell, Larry Bird, James Worthy and Scottie Pippen, all featured in photos from their collegiate careers. Each pack will yield at least one sequentially numbered card, every box will deliver at least four legendary autographs, and 1 of 1 Press Plates will fall at least one per case.
