It's an incredible piece of collectible and sports history. Two of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball on one card. And with the untimely passing of Bryant, cards with his autographs just keep adding value.

It's graded a pedestrian 6.5 (auto 9), with it being a thick card and 17 years old it could be expected to have enough wear and tear on it warrant that grade. But regardless of the grade these dual autos of historic players can still fetch seven figures.


The card was a part of Goldin Auctions' 2025 Spring Golding Auction Collection.

And while this card went for more than $1 million, it isn't the highest selling James/Bryant card Goldin has sold.

It was a non-autographed triple logoman, graded PSA Authentic.
