Even today, collectors roll out the red carpet when well-designed and rare inserts from Fleer/SkyBox’s heyday in the late 1990s appear in the marketplace. In 1998, designers gave 15 big-time talents an elegant feel in the /100 Fleer Tradition Playmakers Theatre. Action photos of the players are set against a golden backdrop reminiscent of the finest stage theatres, and the embossed surface and stunning accents give collectors pause as they admire the first serial-numbered insert ever featured in the flagship Fleer product.
Of course, no ‘90s hoops insert series is complete without an appearance from the most dominant player of his generation (if not of all time). Michael Jordan takes center stage on card #9 in the checklist. M.J.’s Playmakers Theatre issue is one of his most beloved printings—an issue worthy of leading-man status in any playbill of his best cards ever produced.
A pop 10 in the BGS registry, just one copy carries a higher grade than this Gem Mint 9.5.
