BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! 1989-90 NBA Hoops David Robinson Rookie Card #138
This is a 1989-90 NBA Hoops David Robinson rookie card, number 138. A highly recognizable card from the junk wax era, it features the San Antonio Spurs Hall of Fame center in a formal suit and tie holding his new team jersey, rather than an in-game action shot. This specific card is the base rookie version from the inaugural NBA Hoops set. The front design includes the classic arched frame with red piping and the NBA Hoops logo. The reverse side provides comprehensive biographical information, his collegiate career highlights at the U.S. Naval Academy, and his status as the number one overall pick in the 1987 NBA Draft. The card is printed in English and carries the 1989 NBA Properties, Inc. copyright.
