I think its kinda cool. Definitely different...
And I cant believe a bunch of grown "men" arent creative enough to build a case for something like that. Im no master carpenter but I guarantee I could make one in a few hours give or take.
Only hard part would be finding the glass/plexiglass. But Im sure you can find it.

RE: Panini's longest card.....
They stole my idea. It's kind of a joke, but I taped a bunch of blanks together and I'm going to print stickers on them, supposedly for the "Biggest Autographed Card Ever", with over 100 autographs.....but each one is going to be a redemption LOL. Gonna post it when I'm done, will be good for a laugh

RE: Panini's longest card.....
Cool Idea but I would never buy or trade for something like that. If I pulled the redemption for it I would probably keep it. I would rather have a football signed by all of those players, that way I could display it properly.

RE: Panini's longest card.....
the problem is that the cards are horizontal, but attached vertically. to display correctly, you have to have 8 feet of vertical space. 8 feet of horizontal space would be a hell of a of easier for diplay

RE: Panini's longest card.....
I am one of the few on here that like it. I have the space for it and I have the ability to build a case for it. I don't think I would ever own one, but it would be cool. As for value, I don't care. I collect cards. I let the market and Beckett deal with value. Then again, I don't trade much, or sell much so.

If Panini wants to impress me, they should start by cutting down (dramatically) the number of redemption cards they pack out.

Not a fan of regular booklets, let alone one that has no chance of being displayed...

even if you have the
space for it, 8 feet of verticality doesnt lend to display - the top and bottom wont be at eye level
if the cards were folded out horizontally, you could display it more effectively at eye level, frame it up, and it would look really nice
but the vertical nature of it kind of ruins any real way of displaying it with any eye appeal
