In the 1984 NBA draft Hakeem Olajuwon was selected with the first pick. Infamously, Sam Bowie was taken by the Portland Trailblazers with the number 2 pick before the Bulls selected Michael Jordan at #3. This is a beautiful on-card autograph made by upper deck of both Jordan and Olajuwon. Clearly, the hobby favors single signed cards of Jordan. However, I love these two autographs on the same card. It captures both the draft and their fearsome battles through the 80s and 90s. Hakeem only won two titles when Jordan retired and played baseball. Otherwise, most think that Jordan and the Bulls would’ve won eight straight titles.

Hit this redemption out a blaster from Meijer ! Got the actual card back a couple weeks ago. It’s pretty sick 🔥🔥

Over time, the more I collect the more I look for rare, unique, or interesting items. In fact, the more I collect the less into current shiny cards and the more interest lies in vintage and a Hall of Fame caliber players. This card stuck out for me as it has autographs of two of my favorites, old timers. Yes, they are sticker autos and for me, the grade doesn’t matter as much as the aesthetics, the players, and the bright, bold, clear autographs.

These were the kings of baseball in 1986. Charlie Hustle and Doc Gooden - I love in-person dual autographed stuff like this!

Grabbed a blaster of the new Heritage from my local Meijer **first time buying the new Heritage** and I get this out of it!!
