Let’s be honest: If we*really wanted to create a trading card set that honored the greatest achievements of
Michael Jackson’s storied career,*we’d need a whole*lot more than just 20 cards. Heck, we’d need*that many cards just to cover his pre-teen years.
So we really had to scrutinize
The King of Pop’s remarkable resume*to select his most notable accomplishments*for inclusion*in the 20-card
Achievements subset in the early June release of*
Panini America’s official*Michael Jackson trading card set.
We hope diehard MJ devotees and casual fans alike find our selections — including his
1984 Grammys for Record of the Year (
“Billie Jeanâ€), Album of the Year (
“Thrillerâ€), his
1993*Living Legend Award and his
1995 Guinness World Record for Most Expensive Video (
“Scream†at the cost of $7 million)*– to be spot on.
You can view all 20 Achievements cards (fronts and backs) in the captivating gallery below. Stay tuned to
The Knight’s Lance for continuing coverage of this history-making card set, including an upcoming post on*the unique Jackson-worn memorabilia incorporated*into the set.
