Does anyone know about what this is worth and if PSA will slab this?

gregmo32 · January 15, 2011 1:25PM

I know that PSA used to refuse to grade this, as well as the Ringlords Promo from the same year. I think the reason is that they were unlicensed (for Tyson, in particular).

Is the 1987 Panini considered his rookie card?

eagles33 · January 15, 2011 2:14PM

yup.. the panini card # 153 is his rookie. I'm pretty sure its produced in 1987 but psa slabs it as 1985. they go for about 40 bucks on ebay. iHe also has a Question of sport card from 86 but psa won't slab that either.

What are Question of Sports cards? I saw a Floyd Mayweather card awhile back but did not know what the set was.

<< <i>What are Question of Sports cards? I saw a Floyd Mayweather card awhile back but did not know what the set was. >>

They are cards that came in a board game over in the United Kingdom. I don't know why PSA won't slab them. When I find a Tyson signing, it's going to be the one I use as his "rookie". They look like this:

I dont' know if it's the same Ringlords promo that you refer to, but they did slab this one for me last year, it might not be the same year that you are talking about though:

Here are both variations of his rookie card from 1986 Panini

nice adhesive figurines!

Dpeck! Nice stickers. Are you going to get those slabbed? I have the next year sticker(gray border)

Dpeck100 · January 16, 2011 3:31AM

Here are the rest of the Tyson cards I have. I still can't figure out what the small one is in the last scan. It says Grandi Campioni Dello Sport and is number 98. It also has a copyright Edigamma under it.

As for getting the stickers graded I only have one that is real strong and I might. These have been shooting up lately on EBAY so hopefully they continue to rise becuase they are very hard to find.

my question of sport card has the same green print marks on the white border. Its his best looking card imo. I slabbed my panini card just because i like the way the card look slabbed. its only a psa 3 but presents well and was only 10 bucks. corners and centering are good but there is a small crease on that you can only see if you tilt it into the light. Its so stupid that psa will slab a match book but not some of these cards.. like the question of sport, 65 cassius clay Lampo and many early Pele cards. The clay especially since its first true card that isn't hand cut. He is prob one of the top 5 most popular athletes of all time and psa won't slab his first card.

Dpeck100 · January 16, 2011 5:49AM

I found another card like the small one I posted. It appears it is from Panini in 1997 so probably not worth to much.

Yeah that seems strange on the Casius Clay and Pele as those are major stars.

Well looks like I finally found my Mike Tyson rookie "A Question of Sport". I really want to add a 1986 Panini as well. Hopefully this won't take to long to get in hand.

I just purchased this via a BIN on eBay eBay Link

I think I got it very cheap but don't really know. What do you guys think?
