New Jordan showpiece added to my collection

I picked up this beauty recently, it will go nicely with my Jordan UDA autographed basketball. image The jersey has "Retirement Season 1-13-99" stitched in near the tag. The jersey has been professionally placed in a shadowbox frame, behind UV glass and looks exquisite! With the price of the 86 Fleer Jordan on the rise, I think that his autos will follow suit.

    Not a basketball guy at all, but Jordan is legendary. I don't know any sports collector that wouldn't want something of his. Great pickup!

    Fantastic jersey!

    Can you help me understand one aspect though? Jordan didn't play in 1999 (he retired after the 1997-98 season, then came back in 2001 I believe), so what is the significance of the Retirement Season stitching?

    Though UDA doesn't date their items, this jersey would date before his time with the Wizards. January 13, 1999 is the date that he officially retired:


    January 13, 1999
