Preview gallery: 2009 Donruss Americana
Donruss Americana is one of those sets loaded with personalities and characters from the big screen — past and present — and this year’s version includes everything you would expect from the set with a new inclusion, Movie Posters Materials cards.
That’s the front of the “Seven Year Itch” card above, while the back of the card is below.
The checklist also includes some sweet combination cards — Combo Cuts of Ron Howard and Clint Howard, Howard with Erin Moran for the Happy Days fans, Ralph Macchio and Martin Kove (aka The Karate Kid and the Cobra Kai Dojo master on the same card) as well as Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers for example in the 10-card set.
Casting Call cards pair Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell for example, while here are some of the Co-Stars combos: David Carradine and Michael Madsen, George Romero and Tony Todd, Burt Reynolds and William Forsythe, Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, Burt Lancaster and Gary Cooper, the list goes on and on …
