Newsweek Magazine: Michael Jordan 'The Greatest Ever' Collector's Issue

The item is a news magazine, specifically a collector's issue apparently from Newsweek, featuring Michael Jordan on the cover. The cover image is a photograph of Michael Jordan wearing a black and red basketball jersey. The text on the cover is prominent, with "Newsweek" at the top and beneath it in large letters, "COLLECTOR'S ISSUE - THE GREATEST EVER," with three gold stars above "THE GREATEST EVER." A small red banner in the upper right corner states "INSIDE SPECIAL Foldout Portrait." There appears to be a signature in black ink across the chest of Michael Jordan, potentially his autograph. The magazine is protected within a clear plastic sleeve and is part of a three-ring binder, indicated by the binder rings visible on the left side. The condition appears relatively good, though any potential wear or damage to the magazine cover itself is obscured by the plastic sleeve. The edges of the magazine may show minor wear from handling and being placed in the binder. The publishing date, while partially visible, appears to be from the early to mid-1990s based on the subject matter and typical Newsweek formatting of that era. There are no visible tears or significant creases evident on the cover through the plastic. The spine area is not fully visible, so its condition cannot be fully assessed. The quality of the printing appears standard for a mass-market news magazine of the time.
