1986 Fleer #9 Larry Bird PSA 9 – Boston’s Relentless Legend in One of the Hobby’s Crown Jewel Sets

By 1986, Larry Bird wasn’t just at the top of the basketball world—he was redefining it. Already a three-time NBA Champion and back-to-back MVP (on his way to a third), Bird had cemented himself as the cerebral assassin of the hardwood: a player who saw plays unfold before anyone else, made the impossible look routine, and buried opponents with a smirk and a flick of his wrist. Whether draining cold-blooded threes or diving into the stands for a loose ball, Bird represented the heart of Boston and the brains of the NBA.
