Upper Deck has always taken pride in working with some of the best athletes: current stars as well as retired greats. Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Albert Pujols, Derek Jeter, Tiger Woods, Alexander Ovechkin, Ken Griffey Jr. and many more have a very positive relationship with us, and we’re happy to work closely with them to bring collectors the highest quality cards and memorabilia around.
Upper Deck also enjoyed a great relationship with Kobe Bryant over the years and Upper Deck brought some incredible cards to the market for this Laker legend. Check out some of our fan’s favorite cards.
To commemorate all the unique Upper Deck Kobe Bryant cards we’ve put out over the years, we asked collectors on our Facebook page to post the best Kobe cards in their collection, and the response was tremendous. From rookie cards to memorabilia cards and rare signed cards, collectors were eager to participate. You can click here to check it out. It’s a great “last hurrah” for collectors who wanted to show what the Upper Deck/Kobe Bryant relationship brought them. “Parting is such sweet sorrow” is definitely appropriate here.

Interesting selection. I have a upper deck sp supremacy 1989/99 season buyback autographed 1/1 by kobe. It was relaeased in 2000-01 NBA SP Authentic. The card and the hologram #d card have been encased since the hour it was opened from the pack. I assuming that card is one of the rarest available but have no idea of value or how to find out. Any suggestions?
Gerald,
There’s no way to really put a value on a one-of-one card like that unfortunately. Perhaps check completed auctions on eBay to see if you see something similar to get a feel for the potential value.
