The 1986-87 Fleer Jordan Michael Jordan card set a sports card industry record when it sold for $1.008 million at Christie's.
The 1986-87 Fleer Jordan rookies were rereleased, signed by Jordan, into 2006-07 boxes with certificates of authenticity.
A 9 autograph grade was given to this card, which was graded an overall 8.5 by Beckett. Out of a maximum 10, both are out. Only fourteen of the 23 that were released are known and graded. It is assumed that the remaining nine were never pulled, which is why the box sold for $5,000 on eBay.
A number of player-exclusive, game-worn and signed Jordan sneakers were auctioned off by Christie's. The game-worn, signed Air Jordan Low XIIIs, which Jordan wore in the first two quarters of the 1998 NBA Finals, as well as his sixth and final title, are the only ones that stand out.
The Air Jordans sold for $378,000. Jordan game-worn sneakers have had quite a year; last October, a pair of Nike Air Ships Jordan worn in his freshman season sold for over one million dollars, breaking a record for most expensive game-worn footwear of all time
The 24th anniversary of Jordan's championship-clinching shot is today.
