Favorite Under $3 MJ's

[scotthenrichs]

What are your favorite Jordan cards that can be found in the junk bins? No fancy inserts or graded holders for these. We've probably all got most of these in a box or binder somewhere. Here's my twenty favorite, in no particular order.

The ol' Sam Vincent #12, great card to tell a story with.

Have to have one of those North Carolina "rookie" cards, everyone has them and they are nice Carolina Blue.

Eleven Hall of Famers for the price of a Big Mac? Yes, please!

Ahh, a classic Jordan owning Ewing card. Plus if you don't want the cheap card, you can bump up to the "expensive" Tony's Pizza version.

I'm a sucker for hologram cards

Amazing that a hologram insert can be under $3.

Looks like he's about to crank out one of his two home runs of his career on this one.

Classic Skybox, love it.

UD's response to ProVision makes MJ a super hero

Great looking Ultra card, from the flaming basketball logo to MJ going up and over Barkley makes it a great image.

One of the few cheap parallels of MJ with a image of him dunking (over Shaq I believe?)

A personal favorite here, as a big Packers fan, this is the only card I know of that has both of my two favorite athletes of all time.

[myusasets]

opps last ones over $3 92-93 stadium club mj and nice jonny kilroy card.

[buckunteer]

Lotta good ones up there OP, love those early UD holograms, the first 2 years of Skybox base, and all of the cheap MJ cards in his USA jersey from 91-92 Hoops/Skybox as well.

Gotta list this one though as my all-time favorite bar none: 1995-96 SP base. Even the BACK of the card is fabulous.

And the front is nothing short of iconic.

Good call on the ProVision card. I’ve always liked that one.

[Bulls90s]

Had no idea who Johnny Kilroy was..interesting card b/c he had hair.. LOL
Im dumbfounded!

[AbraCalabro]

Awesome cards. MJ has a lot of great photography featured on his cards, some outstanding samples posted so far. I also really like the 94/95 Skybox E-Motion base card, cool photo with the beveled AIR on there.

[Beavers98]

Some great examples so far. As Abra mentioned there was some great photography on those MJ Cards. Heck, there are so many base cards that look phenomenal with awesome action shots.

That card was it back in the day. I can't believe you can get it for less than $3 now.

Stick Ums until the day I die!
