The Chattanooga Lookouts "Legends II" set was manufactured in 1989 by the Chattanooga Regional History Museum. The 32 card set includes many baseball legends who came out of the venerable minor league team, including Ferguson Jenkins, Alvin Davis, Bill Lee, Danny Tartabull, Erik Hanson and more.
There is even a card of famed baseball announcer Bob Costas. These great "Legends II" cards are in NM shape. The Chattanooga Lookouts has been the minor league farm team for many major league organizations over the years, including the Cincinnati Reds (1987–2008), Seattle Mariners (1983–1986), Cleveland Indians (1978–1982), Oakland Athletics (1976–1977), Philadelphia Phillies (1960–1961), (1963–1965), and Washington Senators (1932–1959). They are currently with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
