Ysponder

The leather and the lumber are back. While they have been used in a couple of insert sets over the last few years, 2019 Panini Leather and Lumber Baseball marks the first time it has been a full release since 2005. This time around, it’s a hits-heavy product with each hobby pack averaging an autograph and a memorabilia card.







Across a hobby box, which comes with four packs, there are four autograph cards, a matching number of relics, 15 inserts and a pair of numbered parallels.

2019 Panini Leather and Lumber Baseball Base Set Overview


2019 Panini Leather and Lumber Baseball has a 100-card base set. It’s divided up into to sections, reflecting the set’s overall theme. Fifty cards are “Gloves,” showcasing players fielding. The other 50 are “Bats” and center on offense.


Die-cut versions for both are exclusive to hobby.







Retail configurations have their own embossed parallels.

Autographs and Memorabilia Cards

Hitter Inc. Signatures are autograph memorabilia cards. Versions include Bat, Bat Gold (/99 or less), Jersey (/25 or less), Jersey Holo Gold (/10 or less), and Jersey Platinum Blue (1/1).
