2021-22 Panini Illusions King of Cards #18 Kyrie Irving IP Auto CGC/JSA Authentic

The King of Cards - Kyrie Irving's Panini Illusions Autograph

The card that closes the loop on our whole Kyrie Irving signing day - and lends real weight to two other in-person autos already in the collection.

Kyrie signed three cards for us that day: this 2021-22 Panini Illusions King of Cards, a 2023-24 Donruss Holo Green Laser parallel, and a Panini Hoops Premium Stock piece, all three laid out in front of him at once. The King of Cards was the one he signed first.

The footage we have isn't the raw camera file - it's the cut that went out on Instagram, produced with a highlight reveal at the end instead of one unbroken take. The close-up of him actually signing is real, but it's tight on his hand and the marker, and a casual observer can't say for certain it's this exact card in that moment rather than one of the other two sitting right next to it. Given the texture of King of Cards, and the fact that we were there with Kyrie, we know it's the card. Since the video is not conclusive, here at Card Rush Museum, it doesn't raise to the level of a Provenance Artifact.

The video matters beyond this one card to help foster trust. Your trust is why we send them for authentication and encapsulation, so you don't have to take just our word for it.

Three cards, one sitting, one honest piece of video.
Not a Provenance Artifact - but real Presence, and it backs up two cards that didn't have any of their own.
