Nice P/U, Jeff! Quote:
I recently gave this Orr card (top left) to my buddy's 10 yr old son. He brought some cards to our trailer for me to look at last year so this year I thought I'd return the favor. He says he still collects when he can, but playing Rep Lacrosse doesn't afford him a lot of time. After talking with him and showing him some cards I collected when I was around his age, plus my John Tavares RC, I gave him this Orr card. The exuberant smile he gave me then the huge bear hug right after brought a tear to my eye. Needless to say, I think I made his day and may have converted him to a life long collector?

Nice card, Peter. Weird to think that if that were centered lower BGS would have given it a 9.5. Looks so much better the way it is there. A "perfectly" centered Star card gets an 8.5 from BGS. Really makes you think.
I love the Star Supers. The two best looking Star Jordans are his '84 and '85 Supers. Arthur

Those are really nice cards, that's for sure. I picked up a modest Jordan for my collection; always liked the way this sticker looked
and one of these:

The 87 sticker is so much better than the 86 IMO.

I decided to replace the card I gave him after doing a quick search and finding this one. Not much value at all in these cards unless they are mint, but I am glad to have one back in my collection.
