2007 TOPPS KOBE BRYANT PSA 6 LAKERS 60TH ANNIVERSARY PURPLE SSP LAL8 NO PSA 10 For Sale

WHY SO MUCH? THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED KOBE CARDS OF ALL TIME. IT WAS GIVEN AWAY AS PART OF A SET AT A HOME LAKER'S GAME DURING THE 2007-08 SEASON. MAX CAPACITY AT THE STAPLES WAS ABOUT 19,000 SO THE PRINT RUN IS LIKELY 20K OR LESS. IT CELEBRATES THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MOST ICONIC NBA TEAM AND KOBE IS THE TEAM'S MOST ICONIC PLAYER. THE NUMBER IS #LAL8 CELEBRATING KOBE'S ORIGINAL JERSEY NUMBER. THE SET WAS PACKAGED LOOSELY INSIDE A BOX SO CONDITION WAS AN ISSUE FROM THE START. MANY OF THE SETS WERE THROWN AWAY OR LEFT BEHIND. MOST WERE OPENED AND PLAYED WITH AT THE GAME WITH STICKY FINGERS AND SHOVED IN PURSES. THEREFORE 8'S ARE LIKE 9'S, IF A 9 SHOWS UP IT'S LIKE A 10 BECAUSE A REAL 10 WOULD BE A UNICORN. ALSO JUST THE JORDAN STAR CARDS, PSA WOULDN'T GRADE THESE FOR YEARS (READ THE LISTING WITH 4 PSA 7s) LEAVING MANY OF THESE CARDS TO AGE POORLY. LOOK AT MOST KOBE POP'S AND THERE ARE 100s OR 1000s GRADED. LESS THAN 100 OF THESE HAVE BEEN GRADED. THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR ANY TRUE KOBE COLLECTOR AND CONSIDERING THE LOW PRINT RUN, CONDITION SENSITIVITY AND ICONIC NATURE OF THE CARD, THE PRICE IS RIGHT UNTIL IT'S PROVEN WRONG. THANKS FOR READING AND CHEERS TO THE HOBBY!
