I bought this Andy Roddick card on ebay. The seller did not have the year for when the card was issued in the ad nor when I reached out to him personally. I can’t seem to identify the card myself. It appears to be from a Legends Sports Memorabilia magazine but which issue or year was unattainable so I’m reaching out on here for its id. Could it be possible it’s a custom card? I’m assuming it’s a 2002 Legends edition since they mention his ranking at the 2001 US Open yet don’t mention his 2003 US Open title. Thanks in advance for your help.

Legends was done by May 2002. Looks like their last issue may have been their Feb 2002 issue, #125, which was their only issue dedicated to tennis. It had Andre Agassi and Jennifer Capriati on the cover.

Scratch that, no Roddick in that issue. It was from Dec 2001, #123, with Jerry Rice on the cover.

Ok. Thanks for your help.
Side bar question since you opened the door. Does that mean there is no special tennis edition of Legends Sports Memorabilia with Capriati and Agassi on the cover?

There is a tennis edition, and it seems to be the final issue. The Roddick card is not in that issue.

So how did the Legends Sports Memorabilia set checklist get created for 2002 without adding the cards from the tennis edition? Are they listed under tennis category instead?
Do you know why nobody has tackled & created the 2001 Legends Sports Memorabilia cards so the Andy Roddick card mentioned originally can be in the system? Seems like that set should have been added years ago since it’s now 22 years old without any recognition of its existence.

Someone created a partial checklist, looks like just from a single issue of the magazine that year.
As the site is crowd sourced, it is dependent on users uploading the checklists. 1996-2001 Legends Sports Memorabilia are not uploaded, probably because of how difficult it is to put together a full checklist for these sets. We really need someone who has all these magazine issues to do it. Alternatively, someone could scour the web to try to put one together from various internet sources (i.e. eBay, WorthPoint, Comc, etc.).

I have a few Piazza legends cards that aren’t listed still.. Best way is to find a magazine on eBay or anywhere else that it’s listed, you don’t have to buy it, but be able to see the front and back of the card sheet in order to know what card numbers are associated with those particular cards.. I was hoping someone else would have gotten to it before I tried tackling it.. I’ve been working on postcards and 1/1s getting them listed a little at a time..and still have other Piazza cards that aren’t listed as well..

I’ll try and tackle 2001 Legends even though I have no issues. I’ve done this kind of research before so I know the drill. Just wish bonus points would be handed out for creating difficult checklists that aren’t anywhere on the internet.
I’ve done research already and there’s a golf special issue that only features golfers for the cards inside the multi sport magazine so would those cards be listed under golf or multi sport?

Or you could post a thread for 2001 Legends Magazines with a list of the issue numbers and see if anyone has any to get you started…maybe try one year every 2 weeks and might be able to get all the missing ones listed…they quit using card numbers at some point in time…so the checklist would end up alphabetically at some point in time..

I happened to stumble upon this and was actually working on getting all the years, for individual and panel cards as well as the postcards narrowed down. I would say I am about 80% complete with verification from images. I am trying to wrap this up in the next week or so and would be happy to share it with anyone interested.
I can also confirm that that the Roddick card came from the Jerry Rice issue
The uncut panel has these players all without a number on the back.
