President’s Choice Trading Cards is pleased to add many new cards to our online store inventory.

In fact, we have just added a new insert category entitled LineMates. LineMates features three players who played on the same line, such as the Trio Grande Line from the early 1980s New York Islanders’ Dynasty.

A new group of LumberGraph cards has also been added to the online store inventory including a LumberGraph of a very difficult to find Toronto Maple Leaf goalie, Frank McCool.

There are more of the ever-popular One Of A Kind cards recently posted including many athletes from various sports. How about this Gordie Howe England Whalers “tail of the whale” card.

A new group of StickHandles has also been posted. Take a look and see if there is any cards that will fit into your collection. Maybe this Saku Koivu Montreal Canadiens StickHandle.

New cards are always being listed in the store, so check back often.

Enjoy collecting.

President’s Choice Trading Cards introduces an exciting new concept in hockey trading cards, History On Ice.

History On Ice cards will commemorate hockey milestones such as 500 Goals, 600 Goals, 1,000 Points and other important events.

Each History On Ice card will be limited to five serially-numbered copies and will feature game-used memorabilia.

It is our goal to produce and distribute these cards as soon possible after the milestone takes place. All cards will be offered for sale in our online store on a first-come, first-serve basis.

As part of the History On Ice Program, we will be going back in time and making History On Ice commemorate past hockey milestones.

The first History On Ice card will commemorate Sidney Crosby’s 1,000^th point.

On February 16^th in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Sidney Crosby scored his 1000^th point by assisting on a Chris Kunitz goal. It marked the 86^th time in NHL history that a player has accomplished this milestone.

These cards will be listed in our online store and will be ready for delivery in 21 days from the date they are  listed.

Prices for each History On Ice card will vary based on the memorabilia used in the production of the card.

A concept that I started over 10 years ago, Made To Order cards are some of the most collectible cards in the hobby.

Now President’s Choice Trading Cards is bringing back this concept to collectors. The first category for the MTO cards will be the Single Vintage Players.

Modern Players and Multiple Memorabilia piece cards will follow.

If you are interested in acquiring a MTO card, simply go to presidentschoicetradingcards.com and click on the Online Store link at the top of the homepage.

Hope you will enjoy collecting them as much as I will making them.

Happy New Year to the card collecting community. Let’s all hope that 2017 is a banner year for our hobby.

Within the next few days a complete checklist for this product will be posted on our new website, presidentschoicetradingcards.com.

The production of my Blue and White Centennial product is going extremely well. We are on target for our mid-January release. A definitive date will be announced shortly.

Only 100 5-Box Cases are being produced, that’s 500 serially numbered Boxes. It is also important to note that any collector acquiring a sealed 5-Box case will receive the complete Premium Base Card Set with matching serial numbers. I don’t this has ever been done before.

Now for some images of the stunning cards that are being produced.

Captains Row

This insert set features Blue and White Captains from the entire 100 years of the franchise.

Here is the checklist:

CR-1 Double Sided Card: Day/Conacher/Kennedy/Keon/Sittler/Clark/Gilmour/Sundin

CR-2 Day/Conacher/Kennedy/Keon

CR-3  Sittler/Clark/Gilmour/Sundin

Dual-Sided Captains Row Card

Decadence

It is difficult to combine ten different images and their names, ten different pieces of game-used memorabilia and their names on one trading card and make it look organized and desirable.

I hope you will agree with me when I say that I think our talented designers have found the way.

There will be 12 different Decadence Cards in our Blue and White Centennial product.

Decadence Goaltenders Card

Decadence Thirties Card

Decadence Defense Card

Decadence Fifties Card

Enshrined

I would also like to show you a new twist on our Enshrined Insert Set. Each Card is a tribute to a Blue and White player who has been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. In the HHOF their image and name is etched into a piece of glass. Well we have tried to give our Enshrined Cards the same feel. Coving the image of the player on the Blue and White Enshrined Card is a piece of glass. Something different, I hope you like it.

Five of the Cards from the Enshrined Insert Set

There are 23 Enshrined Inserts out of 10 in the product.

And there are 5 different Enshrined Inserts out of 5 in the product.

Remember, there are 3 different Game-Used Insert Cards in each box of Blue and White Centennial along with 10 Premium Base Cards, 6 Autograph Cards and 1 Assigned Seat Card.

The product releases in mid-January.

Get yours. Hobby shops contact your distributors and collectors contact your hobby shop.

More information coming in future editions of The Prez Sez.
