Michael Jordan didn’t have very much to say after returning from his one-season absence from playing with the Birmingham Barons in Minor League Baseball. A simple, “I’m back” from his comeback fax sent to the NBA league offices made it clear to everyone around the NBA that the league’s best player has returned. Jordan went on to pull off a second three-peat with the Chicago Bulls in the following four seasons. On the front left tail is a “Champion” size “46” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions. Adjacent is another “Champion” tag that reads, “DESIGNED & TAILORED 94-95 EXCLUSIVELY FOR CHICAGO BULLS BODY LENGTH +3”. On the left inseam are two flag tags that read, “100% NYLON” and “3” EXTRA BODY LENGTH” respectively. On the left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered. Across the chest reads, “BULLS”, the player number “45” appears on the front and on the back and across the back reads the player name “JORDAN”. All numbering and lettering are done in black on white tackle twill sewn directly onto the red mesh jersey. There is a Jordan signature adjacent to the front player number in black pen and in our opinion, rates an 8 overall. Due to the rush nature of this autograph, lack of characteristics and subjectiveness on MJ autographs in general, JSA was uncomfortable forming an opinion. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion, shows appropriately light use. Accompanied by a an additional LOA.
