In two short days, Panini America officials will release a new-look 2013 Limited Football that features a preponderance of revamped elements headlined by a striking, bronze-based base card, multiple levels of spot-on Spotlight parallels, a nicely overhauled Rookie Phenoms autograph RC design and perhaps the most creative use of acetate you’ll see all season on the unique Field Vision insert.
But despite all of these enhancements, many collectors likely will place more importance on the return of game-dated game-worn memorabilia cards that include the exact date a featured piece of jersey was worn on the front of each Game Day Materials card. Of course, there’s also the return of the now-legendary Limited Cuts and Pen Pals multi-autographed inserts.
2013 Limited Football releases on Wednesday, which means Panini America officials spent a good portion of last week quality controlling the product and readying it for release. The following QC Gallery showcases some of the gems unearthed during the process. Enjoy the gallery — and stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for additional coverage of 2013 Limited Football.
