1989 1990 Nba Hoops Detroit Pistons Basketball Card Collection Partial Set Appraisal

1989-1990 NBA Hoops Detroit Pistons Basketball Card Collection (Partial Set)

This item is a collection of nine individual NBA Hoops basketball trading cards, likely from the same set or year, presented in a clear, plastic nine-pocket page typically used for sports card storage or display. The cards feature players from the Detroit Pistons, specifically from what appears to be the 'Bad Boys' era, based on the players visible. Each card is rectangular with rounded corners at the top, presenting a photographic action shot of the player against a background of a basketball court or arena. The player's name is prominently displayed at the top of each card, with their position listed beneath it (e.g., 'Guard', 'Center', 'Forward'). The bottom of each card features the 'NBA HOOPS' logo in a blue banner, and a circular emblem containing the 'Detroit Pistons' team logo, which depicts a flaming basketball, is also present near the bottom right. The design across all visible cards is consistent, suggesting they are part of a unified series. Observable players include Joe Dumars, William Bedford, Mark Aguirre, Gerald Henderson, Scott Hastings, James Edwards, Dennis Rodman, Bill Laimbeer, and Vinnie Johnson. Notably, the Dennis Rodman card has an additional yellow banner detail 'DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR', indicating a specific achievement and potentially a subtype within the set. The cards appear to be in good overall condition for their age, with no significant bends, tears, or creases visible through the protective page. Minor surface wear or light scratches on the plastic page are present but do not appear to affect the cards themselves. The printing quality appears good, with clear images and legible text. The 'NBA HOOPS' brand was first introduced in 1989, making these cards likely from the late 1980s or early 1990s. The consistent gray border and design are characteristic of early NBA Hoops sets. The uniformity in presentation and the selection of players from a specific team and era suggest this could be either a partial or full team set.
