Description

This is a true legacy piece for the serious Magic Johnson or Spartans collector. Finding an Upper Deck SP Authentic "By The Letter" patch card with a flawless, on-card silver ink autograph is rare enough. However, this specific card carries the coveted "First on Print Run" premium, stamped strictly as #1/3. Securing a BGS 9 overall grade with a perfect 10 Autograph on a patch card this thick is exceptionally difficult, as evidenced by the high subgrades on the edges and surface. An elite centerpiece for a high-end collegiate vault.
