I had a sealed 1986 Star Canseco Sticker set I ripped and subbed some of the better, centered ones.
Blank backed, same front as the same year yellow bordered Star cards.
Very low POP, typically 5-10 total graded each of 15 stickers.

This thread definitely needed some alternative MJ rookies...
You have most the Jordan's I was after. I picked up a half dozen raw schedules with various rear covers. I've seen them graded whole and also cut so Jordan is showing...not sure what to do with mine but I'm glad I got them when I did.
MMA/UFC Collector here.... Despite UFC 1 having been held in Nov 1993, the 1st lic release was not until 2009... so lots of the big names had earlier, un-lic cards.
Few examples below...
1995-96 Japanese magazine cards of the Gracies

That first year schedule has Orlando Woolridge on the front but BGS allows you rearrange the folds so that you could MJ on the front. I wouldn't cut them, just lay it out to where you get the full length of the schedule laying flat then figure out how you want to have MJ facing up. Be careful though not to crease the paper if you plan on grading them. Good luck!
Got this raw as a BIN on eBay...for $3.83...shipped!
"My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."
Double dipping because I already posted these in the hockey pickups thread:

His officlal rookie is a 1951 Bowman. This may have been released around that time? Not 100% sure when these exhibits were printed.
JD McCarthy PCs are great for pre-rookies.
Arthur

How much did it sale for is one of the funniest and most ignorant things I've ever heard.
Oh man, this is AWESOME! Bruschi is one of my 2 or 3 favorite players ever. I didn’t know this card existed.

He's one of my favorite players too! There is another card from 1993. It has the same picture but the back is a little different.
Recently picked this up in an Auction card lot.
Wait, is that a Marlboro Man in the background?
