1997-98 Upper Deck Michael Jordan 'Jordan Tribute' MJ Reflections (Card #R1)

This is a 1997-98 Upper Deck 'Jordan Tribute' insert basketball card featuring Michael Jordan, specifically the 'MJ Reflections' subset. The card measures standard 2.5 by 3.5 inches and is constructed from premium cardstock with a distinct holographic/refractive foil finish. The imagery depicts Jordan in his iconic Chicago Bulls pinstripe away uniform performing a layup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The layout features the Upper Deck holographic silver logo in the upper left corner and the 'Jordan Tribute' text in a stylized white font centered at the top. The bottom of the card contains the 'MJ Reflections' branding in a circular silver foil logo. Physically, the card appears to be housed within a plastic protective sleeve and a multi-card collector's album page. The gloss on the surface is highly reflective, typical of the late 90s 'refractor' style technology. Regarding condition, the card exhibits some visible surface scuffing and fine scratches on the plastic sleeve, which may or may not affect the card surface itself. The centering appears slightly shifted toward the right margin. No major corner dings or creases are immediately apparent through the protective layer, though the lower-left corner shows a hint of white wear. This card is part of a 10-card tribute set released by Upper Deck to honor Jordan's career achievements during the peak of the 1990s basketball card boom.
