As I have talked about in the Jordan jersey numbers post, collecting Michael Jordan memorabilia should also act as a record of history. Another aspect of Jordan’s career that is easy to add to your collection is a record of the various teams he played for wearing their jersey.
The ultimate addition as far a jersey recording goes is to add a card which features an actual part of a Jordan game used jersey.
TL;DR - just show me the Jordans!
Jordan cards featuring the various jerseys worn throughout his career.
Laney High Bucs
We are lucky enough that Upper Deck was able to produce cards featuring Michael Jordan playing for his high school team the Laney High Bucs. These inexpensive cards are a special piece of history that will take pride of place in any collection.

Almost all Jordan cards feature him wearing the Chicago Bulls jersey. There are also plenty of options to add a Chicago Bulls Game Used Jersey card to your collection these days.
Chicago Bulls script style jersey
Before the jersey we all know came into use the Chicago Bulls used a script-styled jersey. For example, the 1984 Star and 1986 Fleer cards feature Jordan in this great old school jersey.

After becoming involved with the Washington Wizards, after his second retirement, Jordan spent a short time playing for the team. There are some very nice cards featuring him in this jersey including game used jersey cards.
Good luck tracking down and adding some of the Jordan historic jersey cards to your collection.
