<p>By Susan Lulgjuraj | Beckett Hockey Editor</p>
<p><strong>In The Game&#8217;s</strong> hockey products have been around for more than a decade. Now, <strong>Dr. Brian Price</strong> is bringing together a product that highlights its past with <em>History of Hockey</em>.</p>
<p>There are just four cards in each box: a memorabilia card, a PSA/DNA certified autograph, a Rookie Card and a buyback.</p>
<p>ITG hasn&#8217;t released dates or pricing yet, but there are plenty of pictures and early information about History of Hockey for hockey collectors.</p>
<p><span id="more-47813"></span>Most of the original work comes in the 145-card set Great Moments in Hockey. These are all memorabilia cards and includes an extensive checklist.</p>
<p>Some of the highlights include <strong>Paul</strong> <strong>Henderson</strong>&#8216;s “Goal of the Century” in 1972 to clinch the Summit Series against the USSR, <strong>Wayne</strong> <strong>Gretzky&#8217;s</strong> record-setting 802nd goal, <strong>Bobby</strong> <strong>Orr&#8217;s</strong> flying goal to complete the sweep of the St. Louis Blues in 1970 and the Miracle on Ice.</p>
<p>These first two group of cards in Great Moments in Hockey will have artwork by <strong>Jared</strong> <strong>Kelley</strong> and <strong>Mike</strong> <strong>James</strong>, whose cards will include vintage authentic memorabilia. Each card will feature hand-painted artwork with nine silver versions and just one gold version. The final 85 in the group will also have artwork, but will have 30 silver versions and 10 gold.</p>
<p>ITG&#8217;s buy backs will be cards from past products starting with 1998-99. There are some huge names that are going to be included such as <strong>Steve</strong> <strong>Yzerman</strong>, <strong>Mario</strong> <strong>Lemeiux</strong> and <strong>Patrick</strong> <strong>Roy</strong>. ITG will include 4,000 buy backs (which should give you an idea of how many boxes will be made of History of the Game).</p>
<p>Half of the 4,000 will be autographs and the other will be memorabilia cards.</p>
<p>ITG has combed the years to find some of the best Rookie Cards of top players. There are opportunities to snag Orr&#8217;s 1966-67 Topps RC or <strong>Maurice</strong> <strong>Richard&#8217;s</strong> 1951-52 Parkhurst RC. Some of the Rookie Cards will be more valuable than others, but there is a chance to pull some great cards.</p>
<p>The final card in the box is an authentic autograph on cards various sets and companies such as a Gretzky on a 1981 O-Pee-Chee or <strong>Phil</strong> <strong>Esposito</strong> on 1975 Topps. All the autographs have been verified by PSA.</p>
<p>Each of the cards are encapsulated, clearly labeled and serial-numbered.</p>
