(1994 Shaquille O'neal Fleer Ultra Jam City) |
The
Hoopography Top 25 PC Countdown continues with this 1994 Shaquille O'neal Fleer Ultra Jam City foil insert card. This masterpiece of foiling combines many of my favorite card attributes including being a 90's insert as well as an Orlando Magic era O'neal card. This was a hot item back in the day and commanded a pretty solid price of $30 - $40. I never could afford a card anywhere near that when I was a younger collector, but I remember admiring this card behind the glass in the local card shops. Today the O'neal Jam City card sells for a much more affordable $10 - $15. However, buyer beware! Foil cards are notorious for edge chipping and soft corners, and these Jam City cards are no different. It took me some time to find a
mint version.
I've had a lot of fun with this countdown, and hopefully everyone else has enjoyed it as well. There're only seven cards left in the countdown, and I'm sure you'll pickup on a common theme. For now, stay tuned for the next
Hoopography Top 25 PC Countdown post and… "Enjoy Every Bounce of the Ball".
What a cool card. I have a lot of early O'Neal cards, but not this one. It came out during my break from collecting.
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying this countdown. I can't wait to see the final seven.
Damn... that's a lot of foil for one card... it kind of reminds me of mid 90's Fleer Metal. Anyways... nice card... however.. there's one thing that would make this card even sweeter: ACETATE! lol... j/k. have a great week Charles.
