A rare 2013 Aaron Judge trading card sold for $5.2 million, establishing a new record for modern sports card auctions.

The one-of-one signed card featuring the New York Yankees outfielder surpassed the previous record of $3.936 million, which was set by a 2009 Mike Trout card.

The sale represents the continuing growth in the sports memorabilia market, where unique and rookie cards of star players have commanded increasingly high prices in recent years.

Judge, who has become one of baseball's most prominent players since his MLB debut, continues to drive significant interest among collectors. The 2013 card predates his major league career, making it particularly valuable to collectors seeking early examples of future stars.
