Proudly offered is one of the single finest and most coveted Michael Jordan collectibles in the ultra high-grade hoops hobby, the first and still only 1985 Nike Postcard to grade PRISTINE 10 from Beckett Grading Services, arguably the most trusted grading authority in the vast realm of modern issues (1980s to present). Nearly 300 examples have been submitted to the Dallas-based grading firm, yielding 75 GEM MINTS and just a single BGS 10 PRISTINE. PSA, on the other hand, has reviewed approximately 1,500 examples, yielding just 44 GEM MINT 10s, with no higher grading tier to represent the truly high-end GEMS, or the very best of the best. A remarkably attractive over-sized issue, the presented 1985 Nike example features a full color image of "Air Jordan" sprawling mid-flight over the Chicago skyline in the original and exact form that Nike would soon make into one of the single most iconic emblems the world has ever known. A true modern masterpiece, absolutely and utterly perfect in every scrutable facet!
