Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.50 - $2.00; PSA 9: $15 - $25; PSA 10: $80 - $120
Recent Sales
Raw copies consistently sell for around $1 on eBay. PSA 9 examples average $15-$20, while PSA 10 gem mint copies sell around $90-$110.
Condition Details
Top-to-bottom and left-to-right centering is reasonably decent, though left border appears slightly narrower than the right. Minor touch of whitening on the top-left and bottom-left corners. Edges show very slight chipping on the blue border stock typical for this set.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading unless it is in pristine Gem Mint condition with perfect borders, sharp corners, and pristine centering. Due to mass production ('junk wax era') and low raw market value, submission costs outweigh potential returns unless a PSA 10 grade is guaranteed.
Card Description

The card sports a prominent blue border with a yellow inner frame, an upper-left ''90 Score' triangular logo, a red bottom banner displaying his name and center field position, and a circular Mariners 'M's' logo at the bottom right.
Notable Features
Second-year card of Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr., iconic early 1990s color scheme with bright blue borders.
