If you’ve ever tried to wrap your head around all the Kobe Bryant rookie cards out there, you already know it’s a wild ride. Licensed, unlicensed, pack-pulled, oddballs — the 1996 class is loaded with stuff, and most collectors only ever see a fraction of what actually exists.

Mamba Origins fixes that.

This poster is a two-sided, fully illustrated 3'×2' reference guide that shows all 143 known Kobe Bryant rookie cards — that’s 86 licensed and 57 unlicensed — laid out with the key info you’d want handy: product names, card numbers, serial numbering, autos, pack odds when we’ve got ’em, and clean representative images for everything in the set.

And just so we’re clear: This is NOT a hierarchy. No rankings, no tiers, no “this one’s better than that one,” none of that. I’m not telling you what matters — that’s up to Kobe collectors to decide for themselves.

Think of this one as a collector’s map. A visual atlas of the entire Kobe rookie landscape exactly as it looked in 1996, right when his Hall-of-Fame journey started.
