The 1996 Topps Kobe Bryant #138 serves as the flagship rookie card for the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famer. Graded PSA 10 Gem Mint, this card displays clean borders, sharp corners, and precise alignment. According to the PSA population report, 5,560 examples have received the Gem Mint 10 designation.
Drafted 13th overall in 1996 directly out of Lower Merion High School, Bryant spent his entire 20-year NBA career with the Los Angeles Lakers, earning five NBA championships, 18 All-Star selections, and the 2007-08 MVP award. The 1996-97 Topps basketball release remains a foundational release of 1990s basketball collecting, with its dark reverse card stock making top-condition examples particularly sensitive to edge wear.Show more
