Some of my LaPhonso Ellis PC

[Glayam20]

I started collecting basketball cards in 1992. After watching a few games on VHS (that right kids, they a big brick shaped things lol) and getting some of his cards I decided to start a PC on him.

All-Star bound in my opinion in the 1996-97 season with numbers of 21.9pts, 7rebs, 2.4assists. injuries got in the way.

Most famous for THE BLOCK!

This video is worth a look too:

And no it's not Dwayne Wade in the later part of the video! lol

He has 501 cards in total... I have 439... 62 to got, including 16 x 1/1's.

Find me a 1/1 and I will buy or trade it from you!!! Help me!


Got his one after a break from collecting, when I had other things to do... ie. Get married, have kids (4) and buy a house. I thought I was paying a fortune for it but I really liked it... HELLO!

This one too, I bought about 6 years ago... not cheap either

Got this one for a song... This was the day I feel in love with Ebay! lol

College Autos

#8/20

Row 1 #117/150 (I have Row 0 #/150 coming from the US)

Row 2 #5/150

May not look like anything special... but try finding them! lol

Once again not easy to find... Rave #/399

Dime a dozen these ones... but, check out the numbering!

More to come...

LOVE LOVE LOVE the 90's inserts!! Well done mate! oh... and that block is something I'll never forget!

That block was epic! I remember seeing that every weekend on nba action! They wouldn't stop playing it all year!! Thanks for the memories, Ellis was one of my favourite guys back in the day, but I kind of forgot about that Till just now!
I loved the way he would just hang on the rim! And it feels weird seeing him on teams other then nuggets, I kinda stopped watching nba before he left the nuggets.
Thank you for the memories and your collection is awesome!!

 

[Glayam20]

They were the prime years of the NBA, to make the all-star team you basically had to be a future Hall of Famer! lol

Jordan, Pippen, Stockton, Malone, Shaq, Hakeem, Price, Mullen, Ewing, Barkley, Miller, Drexler, Robinson, Payton, Kemp... all in their prime. Not easy to make the All-Star team in the 90's! lol

Awesome PC! Almost as good as my Weatherspoon PC

 

[KB.]

I always love seeing people collect different players from different eras rather then the normal stars as I think it gives you a better look as a lot of cards you normally wouldn't see. Awesome PC there mate

 

[Glayam20]

Our Spoon PC is good... ooooowwww lol

Awesome PC! Almost as good as my Weatherspoon PC

 

[ozballer23]

90s inserts rock and those are awesome!

 

[Shawn Bradley Fan]

Sweeeeeeeet cards!!!!!! I love the 90s cards

 

[Rodman91]

Very nice mate. What made you like Ellis?

 

[WoobieZarz]

Damn this is great, had a lot of love for Ellis back in his hay-days. I remember that block, and another where Mutombo ran out at the dude and waived his finger!! lol.
GL chasing down those last lot, 16 1x1s, wonder how many have yet to surface too!

Hey, what's the Certified Authentic 1/1 sticker all about? Looks like it's on the holder? What's on the back of the card?

 

[Glayam20]

The 1/1 sticker is on the card, not a true card company issue 1/1, but I'll take it!!!

[wolvesjr34]

I appreciate this collection for sure very very nice!

 

[Glayam20]

I pulled some of his rookie cards in 1992 and after seeing him play that was it. A selfless player who gives 110% on both ends of the court. He was an all round player who even when he was scoring 20+ points again still got back and played hard defence And he always got the crowd fired up and involved.

Very nice mate. What made you like Ellis?

 

[WoobieZarz]

The 1/1 sticker is on the card, not a true card company issue 1/1, but I'll take it!!!

Any background on it, like do you know where it came from, and how it got to be a 1/1? I'm just interested, like hearing stories like that.

 

[wolvesjr34]

I think its a National Card COnvention 1/1 Woobie... I have a couple of those myself

 

[theflyinggerco]

Some very nice cards there Graham.

Interesting to see some of those 90s, early 00's inserts; super hard to get then before eBay took off and you barely see them now.

LaPhonso would be making some appearances in the new stuff too now wouldn't he?

 

[xavierty]

man if that were my pc i would be very proud of it well done love em all

 

[Essellohbeebeewhy]

awesome stuff mate...ellis was a fav of mine back in the day too, love seeing mutombo wave his finger after ellis blocks the shot...epic pc...the rubies is hot so is the pmg mate but the mvp gold script is the pick of the bunch from a player collectors point of view..fricken hard as nuts to track down.
