Recent Sales
Recent sales of raw 1990 Bazooka singles generally fall into the bulk bin category, often selling for under a dollar or as part of a complete 22-card set which sells for $5-$10.
Condition Details
The centering appears slightly heavy toward the top and right side. Corners show very minor white touches likely from storage in a plastic case. Surface appears clean but the card stock for these issues is typically lower grade cardboard.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of grading (typically $15+) significantly exceeds the market value of the card. Only worth grading if it is a personal favorite or for a registry set and appears to be a flawless Gem Mint 10.
Card Description
Greg Briley is shown in a Seattle Mariners batting stance wearing a blue helmet and white jersey. The card features a vibrant red border with a 'SHINING STAR' banner and the Topps Bazooka logo in the bottom right corner.
Notable Features
This set was originally released in small panels on the bottom of Bazooka bubble gum boxes. The cards feature a blank back or limited text and were intended to be cut out, though these smaller 'Shining Star' versions were often distributed in separate packs.
Authentication Notes
Authentic. The card exhibits the correct low-gloss matte finish and printing patterns consistent with 1990 Topps/Bazooka food-issue production. No signs of modern reproduction or counterfeiting.
