When LeBron James entered the league as a rookie in 2003, Michael Jordan had just retired for the final time. While Jordan’s decision disappointed fans who dreamed of seeing them compete against each other, these once-in-a-generation athletes, appear on several dual-signed cards—perhaps none more attractive than this example. This 2007-08 Exquisite Collection Numbers Dual boasts a large '23' Game-Used patch window with an elegant gold holofoil surrounding. The '2' displays a three-color Chicago Bulls patch and the '3' showcases a two-color Cleveland Cavaliers patch. Both athlete's autographs are penned in blue ink with Michael's showing every sign of being pristine, while LeBron's is slightly faded which accounts for the overall '9' autograph assessment. This production is limited to only 23 copies manufactured and seldom surfaces at auction as the few that exist lie close to the hearts of those passionate collectors who own them. These two have combined for 10 NBA championships, 31 All-Star appearances, 9 regular season MVP awards, and nearly 70,000 points. This Exquisite Collection dual patch autograph issue ranks among the most cherished in the industry and is a cornerstone for any GOAT collection. PWCC recommends this issue with our highest level of enthusiasm.
