Immaculate Move: All On-Card Autos Signed on Acetate in 2018 Immaculate Football

[doniceage]

You could say that Panini America had an ace(tate) up its sleeve when it came to conceptualizing 2018 Immaculate Football. A perennial powerbroker on the pigskin landscape, Immaculate Football has long made a name for itself by producing some of the most desirable hard-signed autograph cards on the market. But for 2018, the bar is being raised. For the first time, all on-card autographs in 2018 Immaculate Football will be signed on acetate card stock.

That bold move is as much a testament to the popularity of ink-graced acetate as it is to Panini America’s desire to continue pushing the envelope with a product that’s pushed quite a lot of envelopes already. Set to arrive in hobby shops across North America in early November, each hobby box of 2018 Immaculate Football (six cards per box, six boxes per case) will deliver, on average, five autograph or memorabilia cards and one base or parallel card.


Aside from the all-hard-signed-on-acetate development, 2018 Immaculate Football is brimming with additional highlights . . .

No one would say this.

For the first time, all on-card autographs in 2018 Immaculate Football will be signed on acetate card stock.

It's cool Panini is bringing the concept they actually borrowed from 1996 Pinnacle Laserview Inscriptions pioneered from 2015 Clear Vision to a higher end SKU.

That bold move is a testament to Panini America’s desire to continue pushing the envelope with a product that’s pushed quite a lot of envelopes already.

I always get Immaculate, Impeccable, and Flawless confused. I say push the envelope by merging all three brands plus Encased into one super brand called Panini Perfection. All cards are BGS or PSA 10s.
