Panini revisits the John Elway Collection
By Susan Lulgjuraj | Beckett Football Editor
Not much needs to be added about John Elway, one of the best quarterbacks of a generation.
Perhaps all that needs to be out there is in the cards.
Panini America released the John Elway Collection as part of 2012 Certified. The collection consists of five cards dedicated to the Denver Broncos two-time Super Bowl champion.
The John Elway Collection premiered in 1999 Rookies & Stars, the first year after his retirement. Panini wanted to add something new.
“Ultimately, the new five-card Elway Collection provides a bold remastering of that 1999 original, a 21st-century upgrade that poignantly pays tribute to one of the greatest, most-collected quarterbacks in NFL history,” the company wrote on its blog.
The new cards include jumbo swatches, rare autograph versions and prime pieces of memorabilia.
