The Miami Dolphins 17-0 Perfect Season is one of the biggest accomplishments in NFL history. Fans probably won’t see this ever happen again. Despite all of this, no card manufacturer has ever dedicated a portion of any of their products to this monumental event. Over the years they keep praising teams like the Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots. Finally, someone has stepped up to the plate and has given members of this team their long over due time in the light. That someone would be Sportkings.
Sure, some of these players have autographs and relics in other products, but nothing like this. Sportkings Series F, due out August 1, will feature a new concept called Anthology. The first Anthology Autograph Card insert set will feature the members of the 1972 Miami Dolphins. 13 members of the Dolphins will be featured in this insert set. There are 72 of each player hard-signed featuring their home jerseys and 72 of each player hard-signed in their away jersey.
The Perfect Season Anthology autographed/memorabilia cards feature pieces of seat from the Orange Bowl that are signed by players such as Bob Griese, Jim Kiick, Howard Twilley, Nick Buoniconti, and more. I’m glad Sportkings was able to include guys like Buoniconti, Twilley, and Fernandez. These guys don’t have many modern day cards.
After the way collectors reacted to the Art Cards found in Series E, it shouldn’t surprise you that they’d make a return this year. Check out these all hand-painted bad boys!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Sportkings Series F will also have a ton of cut signatures, autographs, and relics. Be sure to visit Dr. Price’s blog for more info.
