It’s a one shot deal. One and done. One card in a one touch.
For those who prefer their box breaks to be quick and carry a guaranteed autograph, 2021 Panini One Football fills the bill.
It’s a pretty simple concept. Each box holds one signed card housed inside of a one-touch holder, sealed with a security sticker. The 2021 NFL edition is set to return in late March as the league in the midst of the offseason pre-draft slumber.
One features on-card autographs of this past season’s rookies along with current and former stars. The SRP is $125 per box with 20 boxes making up a full case.
Like other Panini products, the whole shebang starts with Rookie Patch Autographs. They’ll include oversized patches with the cards on an embossed style stock.
Each is numbered to 199 but parallels in the works include:
Rookie Patch Autographs Blue – Max #’d/ 99.
Rookie Patch Autographs Bronze – Max #’d/ 49.
Rookie Patch Autographs Red -Max #’d/ 25.
Rookie Patch Autographs Gold -Max #’d/ 10.
Rookie Patch Autographs Platinum – Max #’d/ 5.
Rookie Patch Autographs Black – One-of-One
