Description: When is the Last time you saw one of these? Answer: NEVER! You are bidding on an incredibly Rare find. As seen in the picture, you are bidding on a Classic Sports Network, Wilt Chamberlain, NBA on Classic Sports, Sportscard, featuring the famous Neil Leifer photo of Wilt. This is a thin stock Promotional card produced by the former Classic Sports Network before it was purchased by ESPN and became what is now know as ESPN Classic. Back of the card reads "On March 2, 1962, Wilt Chamberlain scored an NBA record 100 points in a single game, as his Philadelphia warriors defeated the New York Knicks 169-147. That same year Chamberlain averaged 50.4 points per game for the entire season! Wilt was NBA Rookie of the Year (1960), Most Valuable Player (1960,'66, '67, and '68) and won two NBA titles (1967 and '72).Have you ever seen Wilt's domination on the court? You will when you tune in to "NBA on Classic Sports," Thursdays and Saturdays at 9pm on Classic Sports Network.Here is the story. I was lucky enough to be part of the move after the network was purchased back in 1999, moving all the inventory from New York City to ESPN Headquarters in Bristol Connecticut. We found a a few of these cards in a back room closet along with a vintage Joe Namath Jersey. We brought them to the people in charge and all they wanted was the Namath Jersey so I was the one who ended up with these hidden gems! I sold a couple of these cards a few years ago on Ebay and people went crazy! Apparently, the true individual Wilt collectors had never even seen or heard of these before! I was shocked! I didn't expect to get hundreds of dollars for them, but I was sure glad I did. I also did some investigating and was told by a big time collector from New York City that these cards were part of some sort of phone call-in giveaway or promotion event. Not sure if this is true, but he did seem to be very knowledgeable. Besides that one card dealer, nobody else from the hundreds of dealers at the Sportscard convention in NYC had ever seen these and they all were intrigued by them. Unlike most of the cards I found, this Wilt card is in Nice shape. Good corners with a nice unscratched surface, overall a NRMT card. So that's it.....here is your chance to grab this rare find now! Don't miss this buying opportunity! You probably will never see this again! If you are a true Wilt collector, a vintage NBA Memorabilia fan or just a collector of rare sports items.....you must have this card! No worries, My Feedback is Flawless! Free Secure Shipping!
