All PSA 10 1986-87 Fleer Set, High-Grade Sport Kings Cards Top Heritage Auction

August 2, 2020 By Rich Mueller

A complete set of 1986-87 Fleer basketball cards and stickers, with each one graded PSA Gem Mint 10 sold for $216,000 as Heritage Auctions closed out its 2020 Summer Trading Card Auction.  

The Michael Jordan rookie card and rookie sticker are the primary value drivers in the ’86-87 set and values have risen significantly over the last few months.  A PSA 10 Jordan sold separately in the auction, netted $75,000 with stickers typically reaching over $20,000 in recent sales.  However, the set also includes a number of other key rookie cards including Charles Barkley, Clyde Drexler, Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, Hakeem Olajuwon, Isiah Thomas, Dominique Wilkins, James Worthy and Chris Mullin.

A complete PSA 10 set sold for $63,859 in June of 2019, illustrating the marked rise in value for one of the hobby’s most popular modern era sports card sets.  

The set is far from one-of-a-kind.  There are 20 sets on PSA’s Current Finest Registry that show 100 percent completion and a weighted GPA of 10.  Several other sets appear close to that plateau.

A 1986-87 Fleer box of 36 packs, authenticated by BBCE, sold for $90,000 in the auction, which closed over a two-night period July 30 and 31.

A group of 50 of the highest graded 1933 Goudey Sport Kings in the hobby drew significant interest, with three bringing six-figure prices including the 20 percent buyer’s premium.  Topping the list was a PSA 9 Jim Thorpe.  One of four mint examples rated by the company. it sold for $138,000.  A PSA 9 Ty Cobb, one of three with one higher, realized $132,000, the same price attained by a Babe Ruth rated 8.5 which is one of the three best ever graded by PSA.   One of the four Red Grange cards ever to garner a 9 from PSA sold for $91,000.

Other vintage cards sold included:

  • The #1 Finest 1911 T201 Mecca Double Folders Set ($94,800)
  • 1969-70 Topps Lew Alcindor rookie card PSA 8.5  $84,000
  • 1934 Goudey Lou Gehrig #37 PSA 8  $78,000
  • 1979-80 OPC Wayne Gretzky rookie card PSA 9  $54,000
  • 1948-49 Leaf Jackie Robinson  SGC 7.5  $46,800

The auction includes a large number of vintage and modern era unopened cases, boxes and packs. 

In addition to the 1986-87 Fleer basketball box, top sales included:

  • 1979-80 OPC Hockey unopened box of 48 packs (Gretzky rookie year)  $108,000
  • 1959 Topps 4th Series unopened cello box  $58,820
