Christie’s is back in the news. The auction house has just announced a new auction dedicated to Michael Jordan. The auction is titled Six Rings – Legacy of the GOAT. The lot includes a selection of rare Michael Jordan collectibles that any fan would dream of owning. A rare Michael Jordan autographed Upper Deck Fleer #57 Rookie Basketball Card is one standout. The card is estimated to sell in the $2 – $3 million USD range.
The card was obtained back in 2006 when those that pulled a Fleer 20th anniversary card were able to send the card in for a signed rookie from Jordan. Of the 23 cards released, only 14 are known to be graded. Besides, that gem of a card is five sneakers that represent important moments in Jordan’s career. One such pair is a game-worn pair of Low XIIIs from his final season with the Bulls. The dual-signed sneakers are estimated to sell for $500,000 – $750,000 USD.
Bidding will take place from June 1 – 14, while the items are exhibited at Christie’s Rockefeller Center galleries from June 3 – 7. Take a closer look at a few key items in the images and head over to Christie’s to find out more. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more lifestyle news coming soon.
