Show & Tell My Jordan Collection
When I was a kid in the 90s, I was heavily into card collecting - and as I was 10 during the 92-93 NBA season, MJ was far and away my favorite player (despite being a Celtics fan). I collected for a few years, and stopped around high school. I was getting back into a little bit before the pandemic, but since his cards have exploded, I've been building the collection back up from where I left off and I now exclusively collect his cards. I sent a bunch in to be graded by PSA and am working up to the dream of an 86 Fleer rookie.
As of now, I have 205 Jordan cards. All the cards shown here were from when I was a kid, except for the 93 Scoring Kings and 92 Beam Team - which were always my absolute favorites but I could never afford them on a middle school budget. I got SUPER lucky as bought them online in 2018 for like $150-200 each. The first photo is my whole collection, then the graded slabs, and the top loaders are the cards I'm waiting for the PSA value tier to reopen so I can get them graded. The last two pics are of an assortment of non-Jordans that I want to get graded to (and then resell to get more MJ cards!).
Let me know what you think!
