Trading card leader goes to work on recently un-retired Brett Favre; will include him as a Viking in 2009 SPx Football set next month
Carlsbad, CA (August 21, 2009) – In record time, the Upper Deck Company has secured training camp photos of the most-talked-about player in the NFL – newest Minnesota Vikings signal-caller Brett Favre – and will have him appear in his new purple color scheme as early as next month. A short-printed card showing him during his first practice with the Vikings on Wednesday, August 19, will appear in 2009 NFL SPx, which is scheduled to hit store shelves on Sept. 15.
“We’re always trying to be the timeliest to market and this is just another example demonstrating how quickly our product development and creative teams can react to today’s volatile, ever-changing sports landscape,” said Brandon Miller, Upper Deck’s Football brand manager.
