The flagship card of 2005-06 Exquisite. Cardboard Connection's product framing treats Chris Paul as the one rookie who gives the release enduring classic appeal, and the checklist backs that up by placing him squarely in the six-card /99 patch-autograph summit. For seasoned collectors, this is the card that keeps 2005 in the serious part of the Exquisite conversation.

Jordan's 2005 Limited Logos card is one of the best examples of why the set deserves more than a rookie-only reading. By this point Limited Logos is not a debut-year novelty at all; it is an established visual signature of the brand, and Jordan remains one of the clearest ways to feel that continuity.
