2016 Panini Instant NASCAR Brings Racing Into the World of Print-on-Demand Cards
By Ryan Cracknell | Hobby Editor
The print-on-demand Panini Instant line is growing. 2016 Panini Instant NASCAR joins the ranks of basketball, football and soccer.
Like its real-time brethren, the idea is to offer cards shortly after races, giving collectors something timely to chase.
Each card is available on the Panini website for just 24 hours. The base version has an open ended print run determined by how many are ordered. On top of those are more expensive parallels that have limited print runs ranging from a high of 50 copies down to Black one-of ones.
The cost of each base card is $9.99 with discounts for bulk orders. These prices include shipping within the United States.
2016 Panini Instant NASCAR kicked off with Martin Truex Jr., commemorating his first career win at Chicagoland Speedway. The race also happened to be the first of the 2016 Sprint Cup.
