This is not the record, but we seriously approached it … Indeed, a card signed by Michael Jordan was sold By Joopiter – The auction house of the artist Pharrell Williams – for the tidy sum of 2.5 million dollars.
The peculiarity of the object is that this is a card of its Rookie season, released in 1986-1987 by the Fleer brand, and signed by Michael Jordan only last year. In 2024, the former Bulls player had affixed his signature on nine cards, and one of them also became the first card sold by Joopiter.
400,000 dollars from the record
As for the record for a card of the nBA champion, it is still $ 2.92 million, and the sale had taken place in June 2024, for an “Upper deck Ultimate Collection” from 2003/04. At the time, it had been said when it was “Without a doubt the best card of Michael Jordan, that with the most value and the most sought after, which has ever been produced”.
