A Kobe Bryant card has set a new record for the Lakers legend: a 2017 Flawless Kobe Logoman autograph card with a game-worn patch sold for $4.2 million, Bleacher Report reported on Sunday, Nov. 1, 2026, citing hobby insider Adam Gray. It is now the highest price ever reported for a card featuring Kobe Bryant by himself.

Key points

• Card: 2017 Flawless Kobe Bryant Logoman autograph with a game-worn patch, made a couple of years after he retired in 2016.
• Price: $4.2 million in a private deal reported by Adam Gray, not a public auction.
• Grade: listed as PSA 9/10 by ClutchPoints.
• It beats the prior solo Kobe record of $3.15 million, set in April 2026.
• ClutchPoints says it is the second-highest sale on record for any Flawless card.

What Kobe Bryant card sold for $4.2 million?

The card is a Logoman from Panini's Flawless line. Logoman cards carry the NBA logo patch from a game-worn jersey, which makes them some of the rarest cards in the modern hobby. This one also has Kobe's autograph. Bleacher Report notes the card was produced a couple of years after Kobe played his final season in 2015-16.

ClutchPoints lists the card as PSA 9/10, which in hobby shorthand usually means the card and the autograph each received their own grade. Neither outlet named an auction house. ClutchPoints describes it as a deal between two private parties, and no other sale terms were reported.

What was the old Kobe card record?

According to ClutchPoints, the previous mark for a solo Kobe card was $3.15 million. That came in April 2026, when Alt bought a 1997 Metal Universe Precious Metal Gems Green Kobe graded PSA 5. That sale had itself topped an earlier reported record of $2.4 million. The new sale clears the April mark by about $1 million.

The new card still trails the most expensive sports card ever sold. That is a 2007-08 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection Dual Logoman with Michael Jordan and Kobe, graded PSA 6, which sold for $12,932,000 through Heritage Auctions on Aug. 23, 2025, per ClutchPoints.

Why do Logoman cards bring so much?

Each Logoman patch is a 1-of-1 piece cut from the logo on a player's jersey, so there is only one per player per set. Paired with an autograph from a star like Kobe, and a strong grade, they sit at the very top of the high-end market. The last few years of seven-figure sales for Kobe, Jordan and other stars have kept these cards in the headlines.
