Graded GEM MT 10 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in a very scarce, sparsely distributed Rookie Card appearance. Among a total of 162 copies recorded in PSA's census reporting, fewer than five percent have attained this example's supreme grading level. An impressive, 5" x 7" collectible – produced as a component of a Chicago Bulls team set jointly sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America and the Interlake Youth Incentive Program – this is a key item in the great player's array of early career commemoratives. A significant, large-sized piece that projects a fabulous degree of grandeur, in Gem Mint condition.
The point is foremost, and merits reemphasis: this is a particularly important and especially distinguished Michael Jordan Rookie Card. Just eight examples of this Interlake Bulls Jordan card exist in PSA's highest grade; this is a far smaller number than the PSA GEM MT 10 totals confirmed for other early and key trading card appearances of the Bulls legend. Although collectibles picturing LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Anthony Davis, for example, have attracted much and well-deserved attention among collectors, the most rare and exclusive Michael Jordan Rookie Cards – like the 1985 Interlake Bulls Michael Jordan Rookie Card in PSA GEM MT 10 presented here – continue to command center stage. This is truly a major, dominant offering!
