1980 Topps Scoring Leader Kolff/Erving/Johnson PSA 10 GEM MINT
MAGIC PSA 10 ROOKIE!!! Ultra-elusive at the PSA 10 GEM MINT assessment, of the roughly 2,600+ PSA encapsulated 1980 Topps Kolff/Erving/Johnson Scoring Leader examples, only 20 or 0.7% have managed to achieve the pinnacle 10 grade. Indeed, this sensational offering seldom surfaces for the taking, justifying why another PSA 10 subject fetched a record-setting $48K in a 2022 Memory Lane auction! While Jan van Breda Kolff was a formidable small forward, it's the images of Hall of Famers Julius "Dr. J" Erving and Magic Johnson that set the tone for this 1980 issued keepsake. One of Earvin Johnson's 1980 rookie cards, this iconic point guard led the Lakers to five NBA Championships and claimed three MVP Awards while still holding the NBA's highest lifetime assists per game average via his amazing 11.2 figure. Not to be outdone, Dr. J would end his remarkable 16-year career with a spectacular 24.2 scoring average and four MVPs, with this immortal small forward preceding Michael Jordan as the NBA's inaugural dunk-meister. Pack-fresh in every conceivable way, its sparkling hues, immaculate surfaces, dazzling white borders, razor-sharp corners and near-perfect centering all combine to substantiate the quintessential 10 grade!
