There’s an undeniable swagger about Panini America’s Select Football franchise that commands attention from collectors. From the vivid colors to the preponderance of striking autograph and memorabilia combinations to the exotic Zebra parallels to the XRCs to the eclectic autograph checklist to so much more, there’s just a lot to admire about the way Select Football conducts itself every year.

Set to arrive in hobby shops across North America on Wednesday, each hobby box of 2018 Select Football (five cards per pack, 12 packs per box, 12 boxes per case) will deliver two autographs (including one Jersey Autograph), one memorabilia card, 14 Prizms (at least five numbered), 30 Concourse base cards, 10 Premier Level base cards and two Field Level base cards.
