In the wee hours of Monday morning, not long after the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks punched their respective tickets to Super Bowl XLVIII, a new game began for Panini America officials. This one featured just as good a game plan, just as much teamwork and just as much timely execution as the AFC and NFC Conference Championship Games from the night before.
In the wee hours of Monday morning, not long after the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks punched their respective tickets to Super Bowl XLVIII, a new game began for Panini America officials. This one featured just as good a game plan, just as much teamwork and just as much timely execution as the AFC and NFC Conference Championship Games from the night before.
Because it did, by the time the lunch hour rolled around yesterday yet another victory was secured. Panini America had finished printing, packaging and shipping what promise to be among the most coveted Super Bowl souvenirs available in New York next week: Two different versions of the official Commemorative Super Bowl XLVIII Collection.
Panini America’s Commemorative Super Bowl XLVIII Collection actually features two different configurations: One 20-card set featuring 10 top stars from each of the two Super Bowl combatants; and a 40-card set featuring 10 Broncos, 10 Seahawks and 10 players each from the New York Jets and New York Giants, the Super Bowl XLVIII host teams.
Both sets will be available for sale beginning Friday exclusively at the NFL Shop at Super Bowl inside the iconic Macy’s Herald Square, Toys R Us Times Square and at New York/New Jersey area Modell’s stores. But if you’re as excited about Super Bowl XLVIII as we are and simply can’t wait until Friday, we’ve provided a card-by-card preview of Panini America’s Commemorative Super Bowl XLVIII Collection in the gallery that follows.
Enjoy.
Cool looking set!! Should be a great Super Bowl! Any Super Bowl Black Box promo this year????
Stay tuned, Keith.
Is there any way to get a set if you can’t be at the Super Bowl?
Not sure at this point if these will be available online through any of the retailers or whether they available in NY/NJ exclusively.
What price we looking at?
The Broncos will dominate Sherman and the Seahawks…..
any idea of how much they’ll cost in NY/ NJ at the various stores?
The 20-card set (featuring 10 Broncos and 10 Seahawks) retails for $15; the 40-card set (featuring 10 Broncos, 10 Seahawks, 10 Giants and 10 Jets) retails for $25.
Awesome set Tracy! Gotta find a way to get these!
Excellent set design, is there going to be an hobby component for these too? Thanks Tracy!
Any insight into the number of sets produced for each variation? Thanks!
Any chance that you guys sell these online on the panini store. unable to go to the super bowl.
At this point we do not, Dave. Sorry. We’ll have a contest to give some of them away next week.
wow! I want a Giants set obviously!
I went to Modells, and called a few of them as well, and no one seems to have any idea what I am talking about with these cards. I live less than 10 miles from the stadium. Any idea how to get these?
You can get them at the NFL Shop at Macy’s Herald Square on the fourth floor.
By any changes do you know where I can get them cards fron in NJ
Have you looked at the Modell’s stores in your area?
Yes I have but I didn’t see the super bowl cards I just seen other cards and I got over 150 other football cards cause I love them
