Has it really been that long? It seems almost unfathomable that Panini America’s popular Crown Royale Basketball franchise has been away from the market as a standalone product since the 2009-10 season. Granted, it has helped that some of the brand’s calling-card inclusions — the landmark Silhouettes and Rookie Silhouettes, Crown die-cuts and Panini’s Choice Award die-cuts — found a cozy home within the Preferred brand. But after way too many years away, Crown Royale Basketball is back!
Set to arrive at Sports Cards Plus this Friday August 17th, 2017-18 Crown Royale Basketball will deliver, one autograph and one memorabilia card in each 12-card hobby box. Longtime fans of the brand will relish the opportunity to once again collect the classic Crown Royale base set with traditional die-cutting and the stunning new Crystal parallel numbered to as low as one.
Additional highlights of the triumphant return are many and include . . .
The iconic Silhouettes and Rookie Silhouettes featuring massive pieces of memorabilia and on-card autographs; look for Super Prime and Tags parallels numbered to as low as one.
Ultra-rare inserts including Pacific Marquee, Power in the Paint and Regents of Roundball.- Classic die-cut inserts in Panini’s Choice, Mamba’s Choice and Roundball Royalty.
- Look for some of the NBA’s top stars in the regal Crown Autographs insert.
