Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.25 - $1.00; Graded PSA 10: $40 - $60
Recent Sales
Raw copies frequently sell in bulk lots for cents; PSA 10 examples have sold on eBay for $45-$55 recently. PSA 9s usually fetch around $10-$15.
Condition Details
Centering is shifted slightly to the left and top. Minor white chipping visible on the blue top edge and corner soft wear. Surface appears clean but edges have typical 1980s cardboard fuzziness.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading unless sentimental. The cost of grading (approx $19-$25) exceeds the raw and mid-grade value. Only a guaranteed PSA 10 would be profitable.
Card Description
Player is shown in his California Angels away gray uniform, mid-swing. The design features a two-tone blue border with white dots and orange/black name and team banners characteristic of the 1987 Topps set.
Notable Features
Features the iconic 1987 Topps wood-grain adjacent design style (though this specific year used color borders for the main set). This is a 'Cup' card year following his runner-up Rookie of the Year finish.
Authentication Notes
Authentic 1987 Topps stock. Cross-hatch printing patterns in the blue borders and the specific font for the Topps logo match period-correct production.
