Description

This is a 1980-81 Topps basketball card featuring the iconic three-panel perforated design of that set. The card includes the rookie year panel for Hall of Famer Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics, designated as the Rebounding Leader. The three-panel assembly features Junior Bridgeman of the Milwaukee Bucks on the left, Larry Bird in the center, and Ron Brewer of the Portland Trail Blazers on the right. Each panel has its own corresponding number on the reverse side: Junior Bridgeman (No. 146), Larry Bird (No. 31), and Ron Brewer (No. 198). The reverse provides statistical data and biographical text for each player. The card is printed on standard cardstock with a matte finish and vibrant color reproduction typical of the 1980 Topps issue.
