An autographed Michael Jordan rookie card offered for $2.5 million in an public sale that closed on Thursday.
The 1986-87 Fleer card offered by way of Joopiter — the public sale platform based by Grammy-winning artist and producer Pharrell Williams three years in the past — reveals Jordan hovering towards the rim along with his proper arm prolonged and tongue dangling. It was one in every of 9 buying and selling playing cards signed in a blue sharpie at his non-public golf course in Florida final 12 months.
In keeping with ESPN, the $2.5 million is probably the most paid for a Jordan rookie card — signed or unsigned — and the third-highest worth in a public sale for any Jordan card. That document is $2.928 million.
In March, an autographed Bulls jersey that Jordan wore in a preseason sport throughout his rookie 12 months offered for $4.215 million at an public sale by way of Sotheby’s.
