Today, as we all prepare to celebrate, we’re doing it again.
So before you set out with family and friends to celebrate our nation’s independence on this glorious Fourth of July holiday, we thought we’d treat you to a must-see fireworks demonstration that only Panini America can provide. It’s a thrilling, chill-bump-inducing display sure to leave you in awe and inspired — especially if you happen to covet some of the greatest sports heroes on some of the sweetest sports cards you’ve likely ever seen.
With powder-keg products such as 2013-14 National Treasures Hockey, 2013-14 Prime Hockey and 2013-14 National Treasures Basketball all in various stages of completion right now, Panini America HQ has been on the receiving end of some absolutely dynamite autographs in recent days. Headlined by the likes of transcendent talents such as Gordie Howe, Dr. J and Johnny Manziel, our most recent batch of on-card autographs foretell of the splendor to come in future blockbusters.
But don’t simply take my word for the glory of what’s to come. Exercise your independence and take a look for yourself at the pristine images that follow. You’ll be glad you did. Consider this gallery your first fireworks demonstration of the day, with the promise of more to come.
From all of us here at Panini America, here’s wishing you and yours a happy, healthy and memorable Fourth of July holiday. Now, let’s get to the eye candy.
Wow Holy hockey Tracyman. That’s some sweet freaking drool producing product right there.
This project stinks of effort. Come on you guys start mailing it in . You are making the other guy look bad.
Ha!
Wow, that is some sick looking cards…would like to get my hands on some of them.
wow! sweet cards, especially that National Treasures Cam Neely auto. Easily my favorite player of all time.
Tracy, do you have a price point for a box of National Treasures Hockey yet? I really hope I can afford a box when it is released.Gonna start saving now.
Unreal stuff Panini. Love to see later releases getting early attention as far as on card autographs was concerned.
**BOOM** ***POP*** ***SIZZLE*** & ***KA-BLAM***!
Open a pack and pull one of the “Pen Pals” autos, or any of the gorgeous patch autos? (I’m loving the Deke’ and Oak’ issues), and you’d best count your fingers! Those cards are so explosive and dynamic, & you could lose a finger just busting the pack!
Stunning and eclectic gallery, Hackler!
Happy 4th to Panini and to the Panini collective.
which product is the football autos going into?
Awesome stuff guys..yes I said that. I’m done with Topps and their poor sorting, printing lines and scratches, CS, and really everything they do. I’ve lost to much money. It’s a shame but hopefully Panini will pick me up..
Amazing, amazing, amazing!! Great job Panini. I don’t usually buy any hockey but after this preview of National Treasures Hockey, I’m in!! Great design and I love the the signatures on the acetate over the jersey!! So much better looking than when it’s signed directly on the jersey/patch because the sig bleeds or fades on patch. Please keep doing it that way because I love it and so does everybody else. Keep up the outstanding work Panini!! Happy 4th guys!
The NHL and their PA especially screwed up big time. These cards are amazing and they will be sorely missed on the hockey hobby market. Great Job again Panini.
I know Johnny Football has got his haters but damn if his autograph isn’t sweet looking—I just hope it doesn’t change over the coming years!
all of the auto will be on card for NT basketball this year?
These multi-colored swatch autos are breath-taking and the Pen Pals are a thing of beauty.. Great job Tracy and Panini and thank you for the “fireworks” display. Happy 4th of July weekend!
What a gallery! Soooo many nice cards, good to see some Colts blue in the mix as well. Thanks Tracy!
Does Ersan Ilyasova by chance have a card in National Treasures like that AK-47 Russia card??
I really like the Newfound Treasures cards where they sign over the jersey swatch-as long as it is of a different color so there is contrast.
when will there be a preview for Prime hockey???
Thats where all of these went! They arrived to the wrong destination. Can I give my address again? These companies….
Can’t wait to add those Larry Johnson cards to my collection! 4 Logomans? I knew you were holding out with all the amazing patches coming out. I haven’t seen any Knicks Logoman cards yet of L J, but I’m sure they are on their way. I love that you’re using both Hornets and Knicks pictures, with most being new pics. Keep the new/different pics coming all collectors love that I know. Great job as always! Patrick Ljbiggestfan2
