Description: About his item: My parents had a grocery store in a small, quiet town (Washington, Iowa), back in the mid 80's. Their store was Kelly's pantry. (Named after my mother, "Kelly") Pre-covid, my father got a 2nd divorce. During that time period, he and his wife separated and parted living together. So I helped my father move. As a kid and still as an adult, I collected cards, and so did he. Long story short, going through these old grocery store apple boxes filled with baseball, basketball, football, WWE, etc. Trading cards, we came across 2 boxes of 1986, untampered with basketball cards. The first box my father and I took directly to Steve Hart at BBCE in Indiana. Paid the 5k to have it authenticated and sent to Heritage Auction house. It sold on July 23rd, 2021. This is box #2 it's nearly (99% in my opinion) identical to the first box sold via Heritage. The photos in this listing include: Steve Hart at BBCE, my sister and myself at the front counter of Kelly's pantry in 1987 or 88' (I couldn't find any other photos of us, but check out the Donruss baseball cards on the counter in that photo!) and the previously authenticated box. Per verbal agreement, my father and I will split the sale of these cards 50/50 after taxes, fees, and other upcoming costs. My father recently retired, and this will be a true god send. If you should have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! I will travel. If you so choose for me to meet you at BBCE after the sale to get this box authenticated. I will only accept a wire or a cashiers check for this item at my local bank. If you should have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! The 1986 Fleer Basketball Box contains 36 packs of sports trading cards featuring basketball players, including the highly sought-after rookie card of Michael Jordan. This set is part of the Fleer brand and is from the 1986 season. Each pack is untouched and sealed, providing collectors with the opportunity to potentially find valuable cards, particularly the iconic Michael Jordan rookie card. This item is a desirable piece for fans of basketball trading cards and collectors looking to add a piece of sports memorabilia history to their collection.
