Preview gallery: 2009 Donruss Americana by Chris Olds

AM1

We taped our Box Busters episode days ago (find it here), but 2009 Donruss Americana doesn’t arrive in hobby shops until Wednesday.

While this year’s set has a slightly smaller checklist, it has some new features (and new names) that should give collectors a few more things to add to their want lists.

(And we’ll say it again … the packaging is cool, too.)

Check out this preview gallery courtesy of Panini America. (Click on the images for a closer look.)

Chris Olds has collected sports cards and memorabilia since 1987. Before coming to Beckett Media, he wrote about the hobby for the Orlando Sentinel on his blog, SportsStuff, and for the San Antonio Express-News and The Tuscaloosa (Ala.) News.
