New to the hoops collecting world, 2025-26 Panini Signature Series Basketball arrives as a "Debut Edition" product featuring one encased autograph per box. These signed cards come in a sealed one-touch case.
The brand name might sound familiar because of Leaf/Donruss Signature Series Baseball or Panini's Signature Series autographs in various Donruss sports releases. There's also Topps Archives Signature Series.
