The card collector's view

Bird's flagship rookie is the 1980-81 Topps #6 (the iconic 'three-in-one' card shared with Magic Johnson and Julius Erving) — PSA 10 examples are among the most valuable basketball cards of the era. The Magic-Bird-Dr. J RC is one of the most iconic cards ever printed. Various early-80s Topps Celtics inserts round out the must-haves.

About Larry Bird Cards & Plaques at FreshDCards

Larry Bird is the most decorated Boston Celtic of the modern era — three NBA championships, three regular-season MVPs (consecutively from 1984 to 1986), and the player who, alongside Magic Johnson, dragged the NBA out of the late-1970s slump and into mainstream relevance. The 6-foot-9 forward out of Indiana State could pass like Magic, shoot like nobody else his size, and trash-talk in a way that became its own folk art. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1998.
