The Iconic 1986-87 Fleer Basketball Set
* We may earn a commission from purchases made through our affiliate links.
1986-87 Fleer is one of the most important sets of all time in the sport of basketball, filled with hall of fame, and all time great rookie cards, including the greatest of all time Michael Jordan. After Topps had ceased its NBA operations after releasing the 1981-82 Topps basketball set. Star had started producing NBA cards, but were hard to find, and had some very short print runs. So with Fleer taking over basketball in 1986, many of these are considered rookie cards even though it wasn't their first year playing.
Michael Jordan's rookie value has jumped around quite a bit over the last few years, even recording a $840,000 sale by PWCC in July of 2021 during the CoronaVirus sports card market explosion. Be careful for fakes, we recommend not buying any non-graded cards out of this set that isn't authenticated by ISA Grading, PSA, BGS, SGC and check out our guide on How To Spot A Fake Michael Jordan Rookie.
