As you may have noticed in the last post, Sotheby's is referring to this mega MJ-themed auction as "Colossal: The Ultimate Jordan Collection." That makes Mikes97jersey, well, a Colassal jersey.
Makes sense to us.
Sotheby's goes very deep into the history of the jersey on its actual auction page. By all means click over there if you want to get their take, and then keep refreshing this blog because I'll put my own spin on things. I will leave you with one paragraph from the listing, as well as a photo of the beautiful jersey.
The imagery of Jordan and the Bulls during this time was inescapable. Posters, merchandise, Starter jackets, Champion jerseys, Upper Deck trading cards - MJ was less an athlete than a global cultural icon. The Red Chicago Bulls Jersey became arguably the most popular article of clothing in the world, thanks to one man.—Sotheby's
