Anyone know which magazine was the first to feature MJ?
I just bought a couple January 30th, 1981 Beckett magazines with MJ in his HS Laney jersey.

Beckett Basketball came out in 1990.

What do you mean? The date is right there in big yellow letters!!
So it is a fake?

1984 according to Wikipedia...
It's just the date of a game he played it seems.

Hilarious...what did I buy?
The starting line-up in the corner didn't tip me off either. It's what I deserve for looking at ebay late at night.
May 1998 issue 85
$18 for a pair of them. I'm sure I'll recoup it locally.
His first Sports Illustrated cover was the college basketball preview 11/28/83 with he and Sam Perkins on the cover. To my knowledge that is considered his first mainstream magazine cover.
Thank you. That's the info I was looking for!
MJ was on the cover of Dick Vitale's college preview mag for 83-84. Don't know if that preceeded the SI cover.
And not a mag, but MJ was on the cover of Chapel Hill phone book in '82.
How much do those go for? Pictures?

There's a few on ebay, but just the cover, not the whole directory.
Looks like sellers are asking $20-25.
Ron, that's pretty cool, ty!
