Offered is a trio of Patriots Sports Illustrated magazines all graded a strong 8.5 by CGC. The first cover is a limited-edition commemorative issue that celebrates the New England Patriots’ first Super Bowl title in franchise history, thanks to their young star quarterback Tom Brady, who is pictured on the cover. The Feb. 13, 2002, issue is entitled "Amazing" and celebrates the franchise's first Super Bowl following the 2001 season.
The second cover is Brady’s first official Sports Illustrated cover, which was released on April 15, 2002. Brady got the nod after leading the New England Patriots to their first Super Bowl in franchise history and winning SB XXXVI MVP.
The third and final cover features one of Brady’s favorite targets ever, legendary tight end Rob Gronkowski. The cover was the NFL’s 2012 preview issue and has the title “The Full Gronkowski.” A focused Gronk is featured in portrait form on the cover of the issue.
