Panini America Offers Detailed First Look at 2018 Elements Football (Preview Gallery)

Wondering what the periodic table might have in common with the past, present and future stars of the NFL? In late July you’ll find out as Panini America blends them boldly together to create the 2018 Elements Football, a unique addition to the company’s product portfolio that includes bright colors, bold designs and a healthy helping of metal.

On average, each hobby box of 2018 Elements Football (four cards per box, 12 boxes per case) will deliver one on-card metal autograph, one trapped-metal or acetate autograph, one metal-framed memorabilia card and one base card. On-card metal autographs can be found in the Steel Signatures and RPS Rookie Steel Signatures, both of which feature Gold Signatures (numbered to 25) and Platinum Signatures 1/1 parallels.

Additional highlights of 2018 Elements Football are many and include . . .

• Find Base Metal cards (numbered to 75) featuring a stunning new design with vibrant photography printed on metal and including Copper (numbered to 25), Gold (numbered to 10) and Platinum 1/1 parallels.
