In the 1980s and 1990s, Nike's impact on popular culture exploded through the roof thanks to memorable products and promotional campaigns inspired by its top basketball spokesperson, Michael Jordan. One of Nike's most enduring productions from the height of the Air Jordan era is its famous "Wings" poster of the Chicago Bulls legend. Upper Deck brings back this classic poster with a new twist: Michael Jordan's autograph. Inked by M.J. in black Sharpie, the autograph stands out impressively on the 72'' wide x 23'' high black-and-white print. Meanwhile, the reproduction of the iconic promotional poster is complete with its original details: the vintage Nike logo as well as the following quote from the poet William Blake: "No bird soars too high, If he soars with his own wings." The massive piece arrives framed with the UDA hologram affixed in the bottom right corner and the company's COA affixed to the back.
