Kobe Bryant 2003-04 UD Glass Auto Focus Autograph BGS 9.5 GEM MINT

Kobe Bryant 2003-04 UD Glass Auto Focus (SP)
BGS 9.5 GEM MINT
Autograph Graded 8

 

This was a tough card to pull out of a gorgeous looking set. Kobe was one of the few short-printed players in the set. Each card is made of thick plastic with an autograph that you can uniquely see from both sides. The card is perfectly centered, and preserved. We had it RAW card reviewed by Beckett Grading Services and it received a 9.5. The autograph received an 8 since it is a little light like many of them.

This is an incredible rare on-card autograph and game used shoe card of Shaquille O’Neal from the 2013-14 Panini National Treasures product.  This was the second year of the National Treasures packs, but the first year for the rare “Sneaker Swatches” and ultra-rare “Sneaker Swatches Autographs”.

The rare set of 25 autographed memorabilia cards comes 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.This Shaq card is limited to just 60. 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. They made just 60 shoe/autographed cards. It features an on-card autograph from the man himself.

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.
