Panini readies Donruss wrapper redemption
By Chris Olds | Beckett Sports Card Monthly Editor
If you’ve opened boxes of 2014-15 Donruss basketball cards, save those wrappers.
Panini America has a wrapper redemption program ready for the return of the Donruss brand, and it detailed its plans on Friday.
They include plenty of NBA All-Star Weekend notables.
For every 24 packs (one hobby box) of wrappers redeemed, collectors will receive a three-card pack of Donruss cards commemorating the recent All-Star events.
Each pack will include an in-action photo of dunk contest winner Zach Lavine, Rising Stars Challenge MVP Andrew Wiggins and three-point contest winner Stephen Curry.
Randomly inserted into packs will be rarer autographed versions of each card where the stars are shown with their awards from the respective events.
Wrappers should be sent to:
2014-15 Donruss Basketball Trade-In
Panini America
5325 FAA Boulevard, Suite 100
Irving, Texas 75061-3601
