For all he has accomplished, at the collegiate and professional levels, he is still overlooked in the hobby. Love these early in-person Star Co. autographs- especially with a period-specific signature from the mid 80’s and in pretty good condition/centering, too!

One of my favorites. Outside of being off center, the color, edges and corners and great color really pop on this Bill Russell rookie. It’s stunning. SBC was the company that later turned into SGC. I’m reluctant to cross it as the slab hold value showing the legacy and history of when it was first graded. I’d only trade it for or towards a signed Russell rookie.

Man, I could have picked this up or a 1/1 Jackie Cut check auto. I should have picked both of them up, but got this one as I liked the UD SP lineage and it was in a BGS 9.5 slab. Wish the cancellation stamp wasn’t there, but it’s a beautiful card. Crazy to think Upper Deck put 147 of these into packs!

I bought this one raw many years ago. It’s perfect. It got a PSA 9 but I literally can’t find a flaw that keeps it from a 10. It’s one of my top 3 Kobe cards that I own. The three color patches really pop!
