Hello everyone,
I am new to the boards and wanted to get some thoughts on a card I have been holding onto for the last 20 years. It's the 96' Upper Deck SPX series, the basic cards have the silver border and then there were the gold boarder inserts. Each card has a hologram in the background. Twenty years ago I opened a pack and inside was a Michael Jordan, just the basic silver card. However the hologram in the background features Jerry Stackhouse instead of Jordan.
For years I wondered if I had a one of a kind error card. However given at the time Stackhouse was thought to be by many the next Jordan esque player and the fact they were both UNC grads, I had a hard time believing this was just some random error card. However I never saw anything posted about it, never saw it listed anywhere, and never heard of another one. I put it away and forgot about it until last night.
I was going through my old cards and came across this one. I did a search and saw that someone had auctioned off the same card I have, with the exact same description. So that answered my years long question and they did in fact print more than one. Does anyone have any thoughts or information on this card?
Thanks!
