HOLY GRAIL: 1989 Michael Jordan #72 CAO Mufflon sticker/poster/pack.
FINALLY!
After 20+ years of searching...finally found what is now the cornerstone of my collection.
I was able to find 25 unopened packs, and two posters! Opened the packs...and guess what I found???!!!!
Story from this guy says that the factory/stockpile of the packs/posters all burned to the ground shortly after printing and release of the product. So only a VERY limited amount ever got out into the collecting world!
Well...everyone enjoy the picks!!

That is a really nice looking card/sticker of Jordan. If you got any Stockton or Karl Malone cards in that lot, let me know as I would be interested in getting one of each.

Congrats on picking up this rare MJ. I had never heard or seen this card before.
Closest to this were the older Panini stickers.

Very interesting. From my perspective, your wait was worth it. Nice job!
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.

Congrats!
I actually just got The Clyde CAO a few weeks ago! Had been after it for about the same.
(On my mailday post)
What's the MJ worth?
I do know someone with some unopened packs his asking price was high. Was not worth the odds of pulling Clyde.
