This is the 1991 follow-up to Legends Sports Memorabilia’s basketball insert — card #11, and like its 1990 predecessor it was printed as an uncut sheet bound inside the hobby magazine, so collectors had to cut it out by hand. PSA records that on the label: ‘Insert — Silver Border — H/C.’ What sets this issue apart is both the frame and the photo. The 1991 edition uses a distinctive silver border (where the 1990 ran gold), and instead of an in-game dunk it features a striking off-court portrait: Jordan in a red Nike cap and tee, hands clasped at his chin in a quiet, contemplative pose, with the red script ‘Legends’ logo running vertically up the left edge and ‘MICHAEL JORDAN’ up the right.
It is one of the more photographic, less basketball-literal Jordan cards of the era. The back carries the familiar red-bordered Legends layout, noting he averaged 33.6 points the prior season — a fourth straight scoring title — and 30.7 at the time of print. Because every copy was hand-cut from a magazine page, centering and edges vary widely, and a clean gem is far from guaranteed even though the surface itself held up: of 175 graded across all grades, 34 have reached PSA 10.
