The 2004-05 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection Limited Logos Kobe Bryant card gives collectors a sense of one half of Mamba’s personality. Already a three-time champion, the 26-year-old flashes a smile in a light moment on the court on this card. It'd stark contrast from his other half—a clutch player whose Mamba Mentality made him one of the most determined players the NBA has ever seen. After winning three championships alongside Shaquille O’Neal from 2000 to ’02, the Lakers became Kobe’s team when Shaq departed for the Miami Heat for the 2004-05 season. As the undisputed leader in Los Angeles, Kobe won back-to-back scoring titles in 2006 and ’07, an MVP in ’08, and championships in 2009 and ’10.
As for the card itself, it comes numbered /50 and has an on-card signature. Where Limited Logos cards typically standout is with their swatches. This card is no exception. It's a three-color swatch boasting part of the bottom of the Lakers iconic logo.
