U.D. Collectors Choice '95 #59.
    (Pictures Ichiro as a special guest at a 1995 NBA exhibition game in Japan. UD made 200 cards, all of which were given to Ichiro. Several are on display at the Ichiro Museum in Japan. This is the only baseball card known to exist that either directly or indirectly came from Ichiro's personal "collection." Never a commercial Upper Deck issue of any kind, we know of only five that have surfaced in the marketplace. $3,000 - $4,000
Note: Click here to see another shot of Ichiro at an NBA game (Seattle, 2002). He also appeared on the March '96 cover of "Hoop" magazine, along with Michael Jordan.)
In 1995, Ichiro, then 22, met Michael Jordan during a Chicago Bulls' practice at United Center. Ichiro left their meeting with a wonderful souvenir.

Reverse side pictures only Ichiro, amidst lots of Japanese text. Made for distribution at the Seattle vs. Oakland '03 season openers in Japan, but not used as those events were cancelled due to Middle East terrorist concerns and overall security issues.) $10 - $15
