Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5 - $15 | PSA 10: $150 - $200 | PSA 9: $30 - $45
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies range from $4 to $12 depending on shipping. Higher graded PSA 10 copies have settled near $165 in recent months.
Condition Details
Centering appears slightly shifted towards the bottom and right. Corners looking sharp within the top loader, though minor surface wear or 'Topps dimples' common to this set may be present but not visible through plastic.
Grading Recommendation
Only worth grading if the card is a candidate for a Gem Mint 10. Due to centering and potential surface issues, it likely falls into the PSA 8-9 range, where the cost of grading outweighs the value increase.
Card Description
Magic Johnson is shown in his iconic Los Angeles Lakers purple away jersey, number 32, attempting a layup. The card design features a white border with a gold/yellow inner frame and 'LAKERS' printed vertically on the left side. The Topps logo is in the top right.
Notable Features
This set is the final year of Topps' traditional NBA license before Panini's exclusivity period began. It features a design that pays homage to the 1957-58 Topps set.
Authentication Notes
The card appears authentic. The photo resolution, font weights on the name and team logo, and the specific gloss level match 2009-10 Topps production standards. No signs of counterfeiting detected.
