Dating to 1990, the season in which Micheal Jordan won his second MVP, this exceptional Type 1 photo shows His Airness in action. A closer look shows that the photographer captures Jordan "Tongue Out," a habit particular to the Bulls superstar. In an Arsenio Hall TV interview the same year this photo was taken, Jordan describes the origins of his peculiar on-court trait: "Well, it’s an unconscious habit that I picked up from my father. Being a little kid and you’re watching your father work, he used to stick his tongue out, and I took it up and made it a habit. And now I can’t stop, I tried to stop, I tried playing with a mouthpiece in my mouth — just didn’t work, it didn’t feel natural." The Type 1 photo measures 8" x 10" and has been printed to its edges. The reverse of the photo has the Photo Sports credit stamp and a stamped catalog number. Encapsulated Type 1 by PSA/DNA.
