Exactly half of In The Game’s Ultimate Memorabilia base card set of 100 from 2010-11 is available here, with ITG’s creativity and innovation this time featuring legendary players depicted in the tobacco card style of one hundred years earlier. Each card is encapsulated and numbered out of 54, with the lineup including everyone from Lester Patrick and Cyclone Taylor (who starred in Imperial Tobacco’s initial 1909-10 issue) to then-current players like Carey Price, Joe Thornton, Nicklas Lidstrom and a few others. Just eight players involved are not in the Hall of Fame, with the impressive roster including (in the numerical order in which they appear), Charlie Conacher, Barilko, Harvey, Forsberg, Salming, Brett Hull, Tretiak, Bossy, Worsley, Roy, Hasek, Kennedy, Durnan, Sawchuk, Schmidt, Lach, Dionne, Henri Richard, Mahovlich, Hall, Bower, Lafleur, Robinson, Fuhr, Sakic, the Esposito brothers and still more. There are duplicates of Lester Patrick and Hobey Baker, with two different O-Pee-Chee card styles used for five cards from 2005-06; Schmidt, Toe Blake and Kovalchuk are numbered to 40, with Nighbor and Fuhr examples each produced in quantities of 45. An artistic color rendition of Joe Malone is from 2006-07, with “63/90” appearing on the holder’s label. Lots of nifty pieces to consider!
