Panini Blog Panini America Provides Sneak Peek at New 2011-12 Rookie Anthology Hockey (Gallery)

[Panini Blog]

True to its name, Panini America’s upcoming 2011-12 Rookie Anthology Hockey product pays tribute to this season’s most spectacular NHL rookie performers with an updated and compelling combination of memorabilia, autographs, fresh designs and collectibility.
Clearly, if there were a Calder Trophy awarded for first-year hockey products, the mid-June release of 2011-12 Rookie Anthology would be a front-runner. And you’re about to see why.
Rookie Anthology provides updated Rookie Cards from Panini America’s 2011-12 NHL roster of products (including new Crown Royale Rookie Silhouettes and Limited Phenoms) featuring players who either hadn’t skated at the time of the original product’s release or who were pulled at the time to avoid being redemptions.
Each five-card, 10-pack box of 2011-12 Rookie Anthology will deliver one Rookie Treasures dual-memorabilia autographed RC (numbered to 499, 199 or 99), one additional autograph card and two memorabilia cards. Meanwhile, each 12-box case should yield one Luxury Suite RC numbered to 99, two to three Limited Phenoms autographed RCs, one autographed Ice Breaker parallel and one of the following (either a Rookie Silhouette numbered to 99, a Prime Rookie Silhouette numbered to 25 or a Rookie Treasures Patch numbered to 15).
Stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for additional information. But until then, enjoy the following sneak peek.
