Record Price for Michael Jordan Bulls Uniform as Goldin Wraps Auction

May 26, 2020 By Rich Mueller

A complete 1996-97 Michael Jordan game-worn Chicago Bulls road uniform sold for $295,200 as Goldin Auctions wrapped up its latest catalog sale over the weekend.  Photo matched and including a letter of authenticity from the team, the uniform was worn during a game in April 1997.  The price was more than $100,000 higher than any previous sale of a Jordan Bulls jersey.

Basketball memorabilia was a big part of the auction, which was delayed by server issues and eventually split into three parts.  When it was all totaled, the company had recorded $11 million in sales and set records for traffic, winning bidders and unique winners in a single auction event.    

The auction also raised a combined $125,000 for three charities including: the MambaOnThree Fund, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and the CAMCare Foundation for COVID-19 related causes at New Jersey’s Cooper Hospital and PPE at CAMCare health centers.

“This event was somewhat of a perfect storm as we had a remarkable collection of historic memorabilia supported by incredible marketing and publicity during a great market for sports collectibles,” said Ken Goldin, Founder of Goldin Auctions. “The fact that this auction was also able to benefit these three important charities is especially rewarding.”

Here are some final sale prices from Sessions #2-3 which closed on Thursday and Saturday nights, respectively.  Other highlights from Session #1 are also indicated below. (* indicates a record price).
