Kobe Bryant and LeBron James autographed trading card enters public auction

A rare one-of-one trading card featuring autographs and game-worn NBA logo jersey patches from Kobe Bryant and LeBron James is available for purchase through a public auction on the Alt marketplace. The 2007-08 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection card remained in a private collection for nearly 20 years in ungraded condition before receiving a PSA 8 grade last month. Bidding for the item opened on Friday and has already reached over $2 million. The auction is scheduled to conclude on September 24. This card originates from the same set as a Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan dual Logoman card that sold for $12.93 million last year. Professional Sports Authenticator identifies the piece as one of the most valuable cards the service has reviewed throughout this year.
