Bo Derek to Kobe Bryant: A Special Father’s Day Peek at Panini America’s Newest Autos

On a day when we celebrate great dads everywhere, Panini America is offering a special preview of the newest autographs that have arrived at company headquarters in recent days. From a pair of monumental actors we’ve seen on film (Bo Derek and Penny Marshall) to some downright crazy-cool NBA cards including actual pieces of film, there’s a lot of on-card admiration to be had in the gallery that follows.

Derek and Marshall signed their cards for the upcoming 2013 Golden Age Baseball. While the splendid basketball images below — including Kobe Bryant, Thiago Splitter, Penny Hardaway, Gary Payton and more — will deliver thrills aplenty in upcoming products such as 2012-13 Signatures Basketball and 2012-13 Elite Series Basketball.

We hope you enjoy the pretty Pennys that follow, as well as the other unadulterated beauty to be found. Enjoy your Sunday, which likely includes watching tonight’s NBA Finals Game 5 and celebrating the greatness of Father’s Day.

To all you dads out there from all of us at Panini America: “Happy Father’s Day.”
