Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Very Good (VG 3)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5 - $15; Graded: Not recommended for traditional numeric grading due to damage and defacement.
Recent Sales
Similar raw 1972 Topps common cards sell for $1-$5, though signed copies vary heavily based on signature quality.
Condition Details
Noticeable corner rounding, edge chipping particularly along the top black border, surface wear, and a prominent blue ink scribble/autograph across the image area in addition to the authentic signature at the bottom.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional numerical grading because of heavy edge wear, corner softening, and the defacing blue ink scribble over the image, which would likely result in a poor grade or a 'Authentic Altered' designation.
Card Description
The card features Eddie Watt, pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles, shown holding a glove in an outdoor field setting. The top of the card features bold light blue text reading 'ORIOLES' with player name and position below in orange.
Notable Features
Features an authentic hand-written signature in black ink at the bottom ('Eddie Watt'), but is unfortunately defaced by a secondary blue ink scribble across the face of the player.
Authentication Notes
The standard Topps card stock and font styling appear consistent with 1972 production, but the card suffers from significant condition issues and surface defacement from the extraneous blue ink marking.
