This lot features a pair of vintage 1985 Michael Jordan autographed Air Jordan Nike Rookie shoes. RARE 1985 Nike Air Jordan shoe signed and inscribed "To Mark, Michael Jordan" in black marker. Beautiful rookie signature of his Airness. The signed shoe has "9 850103 TY1" in white inside the shoe referring to the size and date of the shoe. The 9 refers to the size and the "850103 TY1" coding on the inside of the shoes refers to the date of production. These shoes were made in 1985 between the months of January (01) and March (03). TY1 stands for “Tong Yang”, these Air Jordan I's were produced at the “Tong Yang'” factory. The signed shoe remains in mint condition while the unsigned shoe exhibits use. The shoes themselves, unsigned, are an incredibly rare and highly coveted collectible. The fact that Jordan penned a rookie signature to one of them makes this an extremely rare Michael Jordan treasure. Accompanied by JSA/James Spence Authentication as well as Beckett Letters of Authenticity.
