The search for new and compelling content to share with readers of The Knight’s Lance is a tireless pursuit that knows no bounds. So even though were still almost*two months away from the release of 2011 Gridiron Gear Football, I couldn’t help but show you what I discovered about that product today.
While the*attractive base set for 2011 Gridiron Gear Football will be vertically oriented, the 30-card Game Breakers insert flips that notion on its ear with a deft horizontal twist that*showcases to stunning effect some essential football card photography.
With a vertically designed card, you simply don’t realize how much atmosphere you miss on any given play*of any given Sunday. Seeing the same play on a*horizontal format*tends to give a collector an entirely new point of view — figuratively and literally.
These Game Breakers cards drive that point home beautifully. Perhaps this gallery*will give you something to look forward to while you*await*next week’s release*of 2011 Absolute Memorabilia Football (move coverage*on that juggernaut is coming soon, by the way), knowing all the while just a little of what to expect in*the late-November release of Gridiron Gear.
