Take a step back in time, to a glorious era in sports posters, and a glorious era in NBA history!  This amazing poster features the great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, doing what he did best - driving the lane, fading to the side of the basket, and unloading an impossible-to-stop skyhook over a helpless defender for another two points. This is from the 1980-81 season, when Kareem was named the starting center on the NBA's All-Time 35th Anniversary team - you can see the commemorative patch on his shorts! As with all posters in the "White Border" Sports Illustrated design that spanned the years 1978-1987, this one features the best of Sports Illustrated photography, the iconic white-bordered layout, and a facsimile signature from the player himself as part of the design.

This particular poster was obtained as part of our "Toledo Collection", obtained from a collector in Ohio who preserved his large collection of old 1980s Sports Illustrated posters flat, never displayed on the wall, and virtually untouched since purchasing them out of store racks back in the day. This one displays as well as it would have back in the 1980s, with just some minor typical imperfections consistent with any poster purchased at that time. The picture you see here is the actual poster you will receive! Don't miss your chance at this one, NBA fans - only one available.
