BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A Collection of Approximately 100 Basketball Trading Cards Including Michael Jordan USA Basketball Subset and 1978-79 Topps
This collection consists of approximately 100 basketball trading cards from various manufacturers and eras, primarily focused on the late 1970s and early 1990s. A primary highlight of the group is a ten-card subset from the 1991-92 SkyBox USA Basketball commemorative set featuring Michael Jordan. These cards include #37 NBA Rookie, #38 NBA Best Game, #39 NBA All-Time Records, #40 NBA Shooting, #41 NBA Playoffs, #42 Game Strategy, #43 NBA All-Star Record, #44 NBA Update, #45 Magic on Jordan (with Magic Johnson), and #46 Off the Court.
Vintage highlights include two cards from the 1978-79 Topps series: #80 Pete Maravich of the New Orleans Jazz and #125 Bob Lanier of the Detroit Pistons. The 1978-79 Topps design features a distinctive basketball and ribbon motif at the bottom of the card face.
Additional cards include 1991-92 NBA Hoops releases, notably #33 Scottie Pippen, #255 Magic Johnson, and a #448 Magic Johnson Super Streaks insert. Two large stacks of additional loose cards are included, predominantly featuring players from the 1991-92 NBA Hoops set. The cards are in raw, ungraded state.
Condition report:
The modern cards from the early 1990s appear to be in Near Mint to Mint condition with sharp corners and clean edges. The 1978-79 Topps cards show signs of age-appropriate wear, including minor corner softening and slight edge chipping, consistent with a Very Good to Excellent grade; both vintage cards exhibit typical period off-centering. No obvious creases, stains, or surface markings are visible on the displayed cards.
