1997 SkyBox E-X2001 Essential Credentials Now Uncut Sheet - With Jordan, Kobe and Shaq! The 1980's and 90's marked a golden era for NBA Basketball as legends were born and talent flourished. Imagine if you can, a team with MJ, Kobe, Shaq, Iverson and Hakeem Olajuwon together. Not 1, Not 2, Not 3...the championships they could have won together may have rivaled the Celtics dynasty of the 50's and 60's. Fortunately for the franchises and fans that the legends represented here were driven to beat 'em, not join 'em. With that being said, the number of Larry O'Brien trophies represented with this offered 1997-98 SkyBox E-X2001 Essential Credentials Now Uncut sheet is quite impressive with MJ providing six, Kobe contributing five and Shaq providing four, and when you toss in Hakeem's two it's proven that greatness didn't require a "Super Team" to shine.

The 1997-98 SkyBox E-X2001 basketball set is revered for producing some of the hobby's most iconic and valuable 1990s inserts, with the Essential Credentials Now parallels standing out as true gems. This uncut sheet features 40 of these coveted parallels, highlighted by legends such as Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal, and Hakeem Olajuwon. Also included are icons such as David Robinson, Allen Iverson, Kevin Garnett, Patrick Ewing and Charles Barkley among others, making this an extraordinary piece of 1990s basketball card history. The sheet presents with some mild color wash on the players and the Glenn Rice card is missing an arm and the ball. The Kerry Kittles card is missing his hand and the ball. Some minor wrinkles and scratches are also visible, but, when flattened out and placed in matted frame, it would look quite remarkable. Minor corner and edge wear with some proofing notes written in pen on the bottom of the sheet. It measures approx. 26.5" x 16.5".
