Tomorrow’s highly anticipated release of 2013-14 Court Kings Basketball represents the closest thing the hoops hobby has to a bona fide art exhibit, which makes the following three-box Teaser Gallery something of a night-before-the-big-premiere VIP shindig. Pre-release buzz on 2013-14 Court Kings Basketball has been strong so far — in part because longtime collectors have been waiting for another standalone Court Kings release since the last one appeared in 2009-10, and in part because what we’ve seen of the new edition so far has been as promising as it has been colorful.
To be sure, Court Kings — in look, feel and execution — is unlike any other basketball product on the market, what with its painterly pop and brush-stroked nuances. It’s a product that delivers definite eye appeal while also packing a checklist of great autographs, memorabilia cards, and short-printed inserts and subsets. It’s a set that would be right at home in your nearest major metropolitan art museum. Luckily for collectors, though, it’ll be in hobby shops all over North America starting tomorrow.
Enjoy the gallery and stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for additional coverage of 2013-14 Court Kings Basketball.
