Description

With letter of provenance from the Hall of Fame legend!

1997 Chicago Bulls NBA Championship Ring Presented to Robert Parish. No man in NBA history played more games than this giant in both physical stature and talent, making 1,611 regular season appearances during an outrageous twenty-one seasons of service. He'd get his start as the first-round draft pick for the 1976 Golden State Warriors and rise to fame during fifteen seasons in Boston, helping lead the Celtics to the NBA Championship three times. He'd sign as a free agent with the Chicago Bulls on September 25, 1996 at age forty-three, the same year he'd be named to the illustrious NBA's Fifty Greatest Players roster. By season's end, he was once again an NBA Champion, riding off into the sunset with this ring as the countdown timer began to tick toward Parish's eventual first-ballot Hall of Fame induction.

This was the Second-to-Last-Dance for the Jordan-era Bulls, arguably the boldest and simplest of the half-dozen rings earned during that decade of dominance. The face takes on the "no introductions are necessary" philosophy, providing a massive diamond-studded logo bereft of any text. Left shank identifies its iconic owner by surname and his storied double-zero jersey number, framing an image of five Larry O'Brien Trophies. Right shank finally gets around to the moral of the story, reading, "World Champions, Team of the Decade, 96-97" along with an NBA logo. Interior band features Josten's logo and "14K" gold stamp. Size twelve and a half (12.5). Total weight is fifty-eight grams (58 g.). Minimal wear evident.

Notably, this ring is accompanied by a signed letter of provenance attesting to the fact that this is Parish's one and only Bulls ring, assuring its new owner that no duplicates were made. Letter of provenance from Robert Parish.
