Brady rookie card sells for record $1.32M
Tom Brady isn't done collecting records.
A Brady rookie card sold for a record $1.32 million Thursday on PWCC Marketplace, the company announced.
The autographed 2000 Playoff Contenders Championship Ticket card was graded an eight with a 10 grading on the signature. It was purchased by James Park, a longtime card collector.
"I lived in Boston for 10 years and so am a huge fan of Brady," Park said. "The last Super Bowl win (with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers) was just a mind-blowing accomplishment. I've also had a love of collecting cards since I was a kid.
"Given Brady's uncontested status as GOAT in football, this card is an important piece of sports history and of any collection, and I'm incredibly excited to now own one of only 100 of Brady's best rookie card."
Brady entered the NFL as the New England Patriots' sixth-round pick (No. 199 overall) in 2000.
An autographed Patrick Mahomes card recently sold for $861,000 - the previous record for a football card.
