2014-15 Panini Flawless Finishes #FF-KB Kobe Bryant Signed Card (#11/20) - Panini Encased

Encased and sealed by Panini. Hall of Famer. Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant has contributed a blue ink signature to this ultra-high-end Panini Flawless "Flawless Finishes" collectible. Text on the cardfront commemorates Bryant's performance against the Miami Heat on Dec. 4, 2009. In that game, Bryant banked in a buzzer-beating 3-pointer over the outstretched hand of Dwyane Wade to give Los Angeles its eighth straight victory. The last-second game-winner was just one facet of a flawless Bryant performance: he scored a game-high 33 points to go along with 7 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals to score a win in a season that would ultimately culminate in a historic seven-game triumph over the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. Emanating from Panini's highest-end annual hardwood production, this item boasts visual appeal in spades, combining an on-card signature with opulent foil accents to create a spellbinding presentation. A posthumous inductee into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, the impact of Bryant's loss on the basketball world remains incalculable since his tragic passing at the age of 41 in 2020. A statement on the card affirms the manufacturer's guarantee of authenticity for the piece's content and serves as the item's COA. Additionally, a Kobe Bryant "24" autograph authentication label is adhered to the card's reverse. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered "11/20." The card displays a generally uncirculated manner of appearance.
