Collector notes

Condition. Check for centering issues common in mass-produced 1990 Hoops, edge wear, corner dings, surface scratches, and print defects like the rumored blurred hand above Bulls logo; print is often off-center.

Storage. Store in semi-rigid holders or top-loaders with sleeves in cool, dry environment away from sunlight to prevent fading and warping.

Authenticity. Examine print quality, card stock thickness, and borders for fakes; verify against known errors like blurred hand (not confirmed major error); professional grading by graded/graded recommended for high value.
