Graded MINT 9 by BGS. Hall of Famer, in an extremely desirable and scarce Rookie Card appearance.

The card's BGS condition report: Centering: 9.5, Corners: 9, Edges: 9.5, Surface: 8.5. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered "442/499." A tremendous memento of an NBA legend's life, career and legacy, in Mint condition.
On January 26, 2020, a tragic accident claimed the life of Kobe Bryant. One of the sports world's most adored figures, the Lakers superstar seemed larger-than-life on the court, and his grand accomplishments as father, philanthropist, artist and businessman compounded the universality of the grief that was felt so strongly upon his passing. The offered card stands as a super-premium, top-tier memorial to its subject's greatness and character.
