Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Excellent (EX 5) to Excellent-Mint (EX-MT 6)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.10 - $0.50; Graded (PSA 10): $20.00 - $30.00
Recent Sales
Bulk sets or large lots of 1991 Topps typically sell for very low prices on eBay. PSA 10 examples occasionally sell for a premium to team collectors or registry completionists.
Condition Details
Moderate top-to-bottom and side-to-side centering issues (top border is much thicker than bottom). Minor corner wear visible on top left and bottom right. Slight surface texture indicates standard card stock aging.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The card is a common from the 'junk wax' era with high production numbers. The cost of grading exceeds the market value of the card unless it is a perfect PSA 10, which this specific card would not achieve due to centering.
Card Description
Mitch 'Wild Thing' Williams is shown in a follow-through pitching motion wearing the Chicago Cubs home pinstripe uniform and blue cap. The card features the 'Topps 40 Years of Baseball' logo in the top left corner and a red 'CUBS' team bar at the bottom right.
Notable Features
Features the 40th Anniversary celebratory logo used by Topps throughout their 1991 production run. This was Williams' final card as a Cub before his notable trade to the Philadelphia Phillies.
Authentication Notes
Authentic 1991 Topps card stock. No signs of reproduction. These cards were produced in massive quantities, making counterfeiting extremely unlikely and unprofitable.
