Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway 1996 SPX Autograph
With UDA Certificate
This was a rare autograph out of the premier year for Upper Deck SPX. Anfernee Hardway hand signed the cards and they were available exclusively through the Upper Deck Redemption program. SPX was the first of it’s kind series to feature a single card per pack. The autograph exchange was very rare and is a gorgeous and extremely collectible card. Michael Jordan also had an autograph from this set.
Kobe Bryant 1996 Chrome Rookie RC (Well Centered, Great Color)
Beckett Graded BGS 8.5
Centering: 8.5

This is the rare and iconic Kobe Chrome Rookie Card. At the time of publishing we have 3 of these cards in stock, as well as the entire Chrome Set including Allen Iverson, Michael Jordan etc.
All of the Kobe cards we have are in different conditions- both graded and ungraded. These cards were very condition sensitive, many being poorly centered or green in color after years of being on display. This particular card has both great centering and color that make it a stand out.
2012-13 Immaculate Collection featured some of the coolest patches and jersey swatches. This card is no different, featuring a cut section from near the armhole down to the text on the jersey. Serial numbered to only 19, this is a great card to have in the collection as a Kevin Durant or Oklahoma City Thunder Collector.
With only 5 cards per box, this ultra-premium product was extremely expensive to get a hold of.
Recently sold boxes have sold for between $500 and $1,000 and each include:
This is an incredible card from 2014-15 Panini Spectra has an incredible patch and on-card autograph. Chris Andersen “Birdman” in an extremely rare Spectacular GREEN PRIZM variation with a brilliant patch.
Serial Numbered: #2/5
2014-15 Panini Spectra Basketball has no basic autograph cards, instead they’re all autographed memorabilia cards. The cards come 8 cards per pack, and 1 pack per box. Each pack/box comes with one rookie jersey autograph and 7 additional cards. You are not guaranteed a hit in the spectacular insert set in each box, making this one of the more desirable cards in the set. Boxes sell for between $250 and $500.
This is an incredible rare on-card autograph and game used shoe card of Kobe Bryant from the 2013-14 Panini National Treasures product. This was the second year of the National Treasures packs, and the cards remain ultra-high end.
New to the 2013-14 inserts in Panini National Treasures Basketball are Sneaker Swatches Autographs. This rare set of 25 come with pieces of game-used sneakers. While Jersey pieces have become a staple of many modern sets, game used shoe swatches are far more rare. Both current and retired players are included and the cards are each limited to 30-60 total made.
It is important to note that unlike other Panini products, there are no parallels in this set. The Kobe Bryant for instance has just 39 autographed cards produced. There are no “gold” or varying level of “prizm” cards in this set to further confuse limitations. Each shoe/autograph card is limited to exactly what you see stamped on the front.
NBA Trader is the only recorded source to have collected the entire 25-player set including Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Shaquille O’Neal, Grant Hill, David Robinson, Penny Hardaway, Kyrie Irving, John Stockton, Blake Griffin, Larry Johnson, Deron Williams and more.
Product Configuration: 1 pack per box, 10 cards per pack
Price Point: $500+ per box/pack
This is a super rare 90’s insert that has a visual effect that really pops right off the card.
This is a gorgeous card from the ultra rare and insert-filled Immaculate Collection. Taking design cues from Upper Deck, this set and Panini’s ‘Flawless’ are the top choices for premium inserts in the 2012-13 season.
This card features a rare letter “logo” patch from the front of Melo’s New York Knicks Jersey. Very bold and clean, the top of the “K” can be seen on the jersey swatch.
Carmelo Anthony had one of his best scoring seasons ever in 2012-13 and carried the Knicks to many of their wins. He remains a top player in the NBA.
