In 2003-04, Upper Deck stunned basketball card collectors with the release of Exquisite Collection. “(The price of) Exquisite was met with a lot of resistance,” said Karvin Cheung, who conceptualized the brand. “I even had feedback meetings with a lot of stores. A lot of local card shops were like, ‘You are absolutely insane and crazy. You’re going to kill the Upper Deck brand.’ Everyone just trashed it. ... But another person asked me, ‘Were you confident it would work?’ Absolutely.” At $500 per one-pack box, the landmark product set new standards for what high-end cards should look like, so Cheung ensured it delivered the best players and concepts on the checklist to maximize the value to collectors. Naturally, that included Michael Jordan.
The set primarily focused on a coveted rookie class led by LeBron James, but Jordan maintained a prominent place throughout the product. Jordan closed the final chapter of his career after the 2002-03 season, but Upper Deck threw him back to the forefront with nearly two dozen Bulls cards in Exquisite Collection. All those offerings have proven popular with collectors as Upper Deck ushered in a new era of trading cards. Jordan has a handful of highly sought after autographs in the product, but his /75 Limited Logos card brings collectors one thing those other inserts do not—an oversized game-used patch.
