Presented is an original 1997-1998 Skybox E-X2001 Essential Credentials Future uncut sheet consisting of 40 different cards with fully printed reverses. This 40-card uncut sheet, arranged in four rows of ten cards, represents nearly half the set of 82 cards (including the two checklists). This set is loaded with superstars and rookie cards of future Hall of Famers, highlighted by Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Shaquille O'Neal. This 40-card sheet measures approximately 26.5 x 16.5 inches. Because of the large size, it is susceptible to minor imperfections. The sheet has a few minor condition flaws such as edge wear and a minor patch of peeling on the white sheet border between the Kerry Kittles and Marcus Camby cards. This sheet is very bright, clean, and extremely impressive! Assigning an overall grade to uncut sheets, especially one of this size, can be extremely difficult. Many of the interior cards on this sheet would grade Mint. This issue is notable for being a very high-end product for the era and being that many of these cards would grade Mint makes this sheet extremely appealing! Despite the minor technical flaws, this sheet has tremendous visual appeal, and would be an outstanding addition to any advanced basketball or uncut-sheet collection. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot. Reserve $5,000.
