Lot # 13: 2004-2005 Upper Deck SP Signature Triple Authentic Signatures Basketball #AS3-JBJ Michael Jordan/Kobe Bryant/LeBron James #12/25 PSA EX 5

Graded EX 5 by PSA (submitted by REA). Presented is one of modern-card collecting's most coveted and prized signed inserts: a 2004-2005 Upper Deck SP Signature Triple Authentic Signatures card, featuring on-card autographs of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James. Each player has boldly signed in blue-fine point marker on the gold foil panel adjacent to his respective image. Serial-numbered "12/25" above the signatures, this remarkable card unites three legends of the sport, each of whom has a legitimate "GOAT" claim. Together, they represent an unbroken lineage of modern basketball royalty, with Bryant serving as the generational bridge between Jordan's era and the league James would come to define. Naturally, cards signed by all three are exceedingly rare. From 2003 through 2010, Upper Deck issued 11 triple on-card autograph subsets of the trio, with total production exceeding only slightly more than 100 across all issues. Of those, fewer are known to be in circulation, and PSA has graded just 10 examples of this specific insert to date. This card presents as an exceptional mid-grade example, with the assigned grade largely attributed to the small wrinkle along the top edge of the reverse. Widely regarded as a grail piece within modern basketball collecting, this card would serve as a cornerstone in even the most advanced collections.
