Next month,
Panini America returns one of football’s longest-running and longest-adored collecting icons to the gridiron with a bold, new logo, several new insert sets and tons of
Rookie Cards honoring the ballyhooed 2014
NFL Draft Class. For most collectors,
Score Football, an annual collecting staple since that historic debut back in 1989, signals the official kickoff of a new NFL collecting season. That’s certain to be the case when
2014 Score Football arrives.
Every box of 2014 Score Football will deliver 24 packs (12 cards per pack, $1.99 SRP) and one autograph or memorabilia card. In addition, each 24-pack box — available at both hobby and retail — will also yield six retail
Hot Rookies, four
Scorecard parallels, four
Numbers Game inserts and 12 additional inserts.
2014 Score Football is also bolstered with the brand’s normal array of chase-worthy parallels, including
Showcase (#’d to 99),
Gold Zone (#’d to 50),
Artist’s Proof (#’d to 35),
Red Zone (#’d to 20),
End Zone (#’d to six),
Gem Masters (#’d to only one).
If you followed along with
Panini America’s Twitter account during the 2014 NFL Draft, you caught your
first glimpses of each pick’s 2014 Score Rookie Card. Today, we’re going to bring you a whole lot more of what to expect from one of collecting’s favorite brands. (Although many of the mockups that follow lack the foil enhancements that will appear on the final cards, they do help paint a more complete Score previews.)
Oh, and if you missed our Saturday preview of
Panini America’s 2014 Hot Rookies Football,
it’s all right here.
Enjoy this extended sneak peek and stay tuned to
The Knight’s Lance for additional coverage of 2014 Score Football.
