Panini Authentic Kobe Bryant Autographed ZOOM V Draft Day Shoes ~Limited to 1~

Few people remember that the Black Mamba was actually drafted by the Hornets before being traded to Los Angeles.  It’s safe to assume that deal worked out well for the purple and gold.  Marvel at these amazing shoes which commemorate Kobe’s special draft day.  Kobe has autograpehed each shoe and inscribed the left shoe with the offical date of his draft “6-26-96.”  These are limited to ONE in the world and is extremely rare!  I am excited to be the proud owned of these Limited Edition Kobe Bryant Shoes.

2006-07 SP Game Used All-Star Memorabilia Patches – Kobe Bryant & Lebron James Limited /25 BGS 9.5 Gem Mint

Kobe Bryant and LeBron James All Star Cards that have both been sent to BGS were graded Gem Mint 9.5!  I wasn’t too shocked when I got the gem mint grade because when I purchased them raw they were already in really great condition!  Both of the cards are very rare and limited to 25.  What I like about the LeBron card is that he won 2006 MVP All Star honors that year and became the youngest to win the award scoring 29 points and grabbing six rebounds.  The Kobe card has a patch that clearly says “ST” on it from “Houston”

2008-09 Derrick Rose SPX Autographed Rookie Card (Home / Away) Limited /99 BGS 9 Mint

Collecting rookie cards has always been a passion of mine ever since I was a kid.  Take a look at (2) Derrick Rose Rookie Cards from the SPX Set by Upper Deck that I own.  Upper Deck has created both a home and away version of the card and included a jersey swatch and is autographed by Derrick Rose.  Both cards are graded by Becket Grading Services (BGS) and have been graded a Mint 9.  BGS is one of the toughest graders in the nation and what makes each card rare is that SPX cards are tough to grade high because they are thick cards and the fact that only 99 were produced from each style.

Kobe Bryant scored 31 points to capture his second MVP award and lead the West to a 153-132 victory over the East in the NBA All-Star game on Sunday.  Bryant hit 13 of 24 shots and had six steals and six assists in the game, played just off the glittery gambling mecca known as “The Strip.” The Los Angeles Lakers guard also had 31 points when he was MVP in the 2002 All-Star game in Philadelphia.  It was the first time the All-Star Game was played in a city without an NBA franchise and first to be played on a college campus.

The jersey itself is autographed by Kobe Bryant with the inscription of “07 AS MVP” and is limited to 124.  I was able to add #63 to my ever growing Kobe Bryant memorabilia collection.

Only a hand full of these shoes were produced which makes them also rare.
