One of the many things I have accomplished in my collecting career is to collect a complete rainbow of a card. That is not an easy task considering both Topps and Panini cranks out 20 plus different versions of a given card. Shiny cards, colored cards, Easter bunny cards, short prints, the list can go on and on. I have never actively pursued a player rainbow until this year. I never dreamed it would be an autograph set.
Up until this year, I have never owned a Panini Flawless card. Thanks to the inclusion of Ray Lankford, that changed. He was included in the Signature and Achievements sets. I slowly went after any I could find. Last week I found the last version of the 6 Signature cards.
The complete rainbow includes the Platinum 1/1, the Emerald /5, the Gold /10, the Sapphire /15, the Ruby /20, and the base version /25.
Anytime someone collects an entire rainbow, it's impressive. When it's an autographed rainbow of a favorite player... it's super duper impressive. Congratulations.

DeleteLooks fantastic! Hard enough to get a full rainbow, but when everything is numbered to /25 or less, wow.
