The card set was manufactured byUpper Deck and made its official debut by being randomly inserted into packs of Upper Deck’s 2008 Series 1 Baseball.[1]As part of a promotion related to the set, the first five collectors who completed the set of all 6,661 cards inserted into 2008 Upper Deck Baseball products, were to travel to New York during the 2009 New York Yankees season to attend a game at the new Yankee Stadium and meet Yankee Captain, Derek Jeter.[2] The Yankee Stadium Legacy cards representing the 2008 New York Yankees season appeared in 2009 Upper Deck Series One Baseball packs in February 2009 and put an end to the Yankee Stadium Legacy promotion.[1] The five contest winners would receive the 82 cards representing the final season at Yankee Stadium.Tommy Baxter, a 36-year-old from Little Rock, Arkansas, was the first collector to put together Upper Deck’s Yankee Stadium Legacy (YSL) Collection. Baxter was an avid Cubs fan, and seized the opportunity to become the first collector to piece together the insert set.[3] Baxter's accomplishment was commemorated with a card in 2009 Upper Deck Series One Baseball.(thanks wiki) Considering the modern card show is charging at least $40 or more to enter and per item autographed at shows (over $100 for some athletes) - Premium hits like these are certified by the company and are guaranteed to be authentic.
