When you speak of an athlete that has kept his value 10 years after he played his last game, you can only be speaking of Michael Jordan. I tried to get away from doing a Jordan topic for this week's "Throwback Thursdays" edition, but I came across something that sparked my intrigue. The Jordan trading cards, which started when "His Airness" was a rookie out of North Carolina, holds more value today then it did 20 years ago.
Air Jordan's trading cards, mostly from his stunning career as a Chicago Bulls leader, still sell from a minimum of $1,000 all the way up to $25,000. If you're lucky enough to hold an autographed card, it could be worth upwards of $50,000. Not bad for a retired baller, who still gets $80 million a year from Jordan Brand, Gatorade, 2K Sports video games, and 80% owner of the Charlotte Bobcats.
I pay attention to details. Notice the cards where Michael is wearing your favorite kicks from his Jordan Brand. For sneakerheads, these cards are truly priceless. Cali "O" #ThrowbackThursdays #TheAirIbreathe
