Ahead of its time, SkyBox released its 1/1 1998 Gem Masters series, which parallels the product's 123-card base checklist. The unique card design and limited production made the edition an instant hit when SkyBox inserted them into hobby packs. As the decades pass, treasures such as Precious Metal Gems, Star Rubies, and Gem Masters continue to capture the attention of high-end hoops collectors. It's rare for any 1/1 Gem Masters card to hit the secondary market, much less one showcasing a player of Karl Malone's caliber.
Over a 19-season career—primarily with the Utah Jazz—The Mailman amassed 36,928 points, making him one of the top scorers of all time. Renowned for his physical strength and mid-range shooting, Malone also ranks among the league’s all-time leaders in rebounds and free throws, cementing his legacy as one of basketball’s most dominant players.
The certification number on this card has been checked against the third-party grader's online database and is active as of 03/31/2026.
