A case of McDonald's Dream Team Cups -- unopened from 1992. New, never used. The case holds 250 plastic cups from the best basketball team ever assembled, the 1992 Olympic Dream Team: Jordan, Bird, Johnson, Ewing, Robinson, Stockton, Malone, Barkley, Pippen, Drexler, Mullin, Laettner, The McDonald's master carton holding the cups is weathered by time -- 36 years old -- and inside guarantees the buyer of never used, pristine cups.
This was one of the most popular promotions ever conducted by McDonald's. The top of the case also tells how many are in each row inside the case (20 or 21 in a row). This case was sent to a McDonald's location in Philadelphia in 1992. See photos (photos of Dream Team cups are not from the case). Photo showing 21/20/21/21 is one of four located on top of the box, totalling 250 cups.
Extremely rare -- not likely to be many unbroken cases in circulation. Could be a future valuable collectible based on scarcity, representing the rock-star team assembled for the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games. The first time the U.S. sent professional players to the Games.
Documentary films continue to tell the story of the Dream Team -- a legendary legacy that will last the test of time. Or, since the cups have never been used, the case of 250 could be a perfect beverage holder for an NBA or Sports event/promotion -- or a special gift for an elite basketball fan.
Individual used cups sell between $5 and $20, depending on condition and player. This is a blind box -- assorted players were given out weekly in the promotion.
This will ship with another corrugate box to protect the McDonald's case from further wear. Own a RARE piece of NBA and basketball history.
