Here’s the basketball issue that helped revolutionize the whole basketball card-collecting arena, the set loaded with Rookie cards up and down the line but most notably with the inclusion of the most famous Rookie card of all, Michael Jordan (MIA here; offered in a separate adjacent lot). The offered near set is in almost literally unimprovable condition, looking precisely as it must have when it rolled off the presses 36 years ago, which is in this instance means Mint and Gem Mint cards up and down the line, with two dozen cards adjudged SGC 98 Gem Mint and the balance (107) are SGC 96 Mint. See what we meant by “almost literally unimprovable”?
