Story on Sports Collectors Daily on Panini signing deal with Mantle family
Saw a disappointing story on Sports Collectors Daily yesterday. It appears Panini America has signed a deal with Mickey Mantle's two surviving boys (estate) to produce cards of their dad. Danny and David felt the market has been flooded with cards of their father. While that is true, Topps produced all kinds of cards to recoup the yearly fee they had to shell out to issue cards of Mick.
Where I am going with this chagrin is due to the fact Panini's hands are tied by being forbidden to use any New York Yankee emblems. No matter how eye-appealing of a pose they may use, without the "NY" the cards are going to die. Even a card with an autograph would be spoilt by the missing "N" superimposed over the "Y". It's a shame for Panini. ----Brian Powell
