Graded GEM MINT 9.5 by BGS. Ultra-high-grade example of #7 Michael Jordan – “Gatorade Slam Dunk” from the nine-card set issued by The Star Co. as one of its limited offerings in 1985. The set was devoted exclusively to the superstars who participated in the popular “Slam Dunk” contest. It is a condition rarity that is often found with centering problems and chipping to the fragile green borders. Neither is the case with this incredible gem, which presents with four sharp corners, brilliant colors, and perfect centering. The reverse is flawlessly clean. This is a tremendous example in exceptional condition of one of Michael Jordan's most desirable early cards. Reserve $300. Estimate $500+.
