When it comes to modern athletes, Michael Jordan's signature is tops. More than a basketball star, he was a cultural icon. In fact, he remains one of the most influential athletes even though he's been retired for more than 20 years. The first certified MJ autographs didn't arrive in packs of sports cards until the mid 1990s. By then, he was already an icon. Jordan's cards were engrained in a generation of collectors. That's part of the appeal of this signed card.
1988-89 Fleer is one of Jordan's earliest cards. It might not be as recognizable as his rookie card from a couple of years earlier before but it's still extremely popular. As far as autographs go, Jordan is king among modern athletes. His status as a global superstar transcends his immense on-court achievements. It goes into something bigger and broader, encompassing fashion, movies and culture as a whole.
Jordan's signature sits cleanly in the middle of the card in black ink. The card itself has been graded a NM BGS 7 while the autograph is a 10.
The certification number on this card has been checked against the third-party grader's online database and is active as of 07/07/2026.
