1991-92 Upper Deck NBA Basketball Inaugural Edition Factory Sealed Box

This item is a factory-sealed box of 1991-92 Upper Deck NBA Basketball cards, specifically labeled as an 'Inaugural Edition'. The box itself appears to be constructed from a cardboard material, designed to mimic the appearance of a wooden crate or box, featuring a reddish-brown wood grain pattern. The visible side of the box prominently displays the 'UPPER DECK' logo in red and black, accompanied by a stylized NBA logo. Text on the box clearly states '1991-92 INAUGURAL EDITION NBA BASKETBALL CARDS'. The entire box is encased in its original, clear plastic factory seal, indicating that the contents are undisturbed and un-searched. The plastic seal appears to be intact with no obvious tears or breaches, which is a significant factor in preserving the item's value for collectors. The edges and corners of the box, visible through the plastic, show minimal wear and tear, suggesting good preservation. The item is currently held within a larger, plain brown cardboard shipping or storage box, which offers additional protection and suggests it has been stored responsibly. The estimated age of this item is consistent with its stated production year, placing it in the early 1990s. This era is notable in sports card collecting, particularly due to the rise of prominent NBA players whose rookie cards and early issues can be found within such sets. The 'Inaugural Edition' designation further highlights its significance as a first release for the brand in NBA basketball for that season.
