Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Excellent (EX 5) to Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.50 - $2.00; PSA 10: $25 - $40
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies typically conclude between $0.99 and $3.00 including shipping. PSA 9 copies sell for roughly $10-$15.
Condition Details
Observed top-heavy centering; minor edge whitening visible along the top and left borders; surface wear consistent with age; slight corner softening on the bottom left. Assessment is slightly obscured by the top-loader which shows significant scuffing.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The card was mass-produced during the 'Junk Wax' era. Grading fees would significantly exceed the market value of the card unless it was a guaranteed Gem Mint 10, which this specimen is not due to centering and edge wear.
Card Description
The card features Felix Potvin as a 'Goaltender' for the Toronto Maple Leafs, though he is pictured in his junior hockey uniform for the Chicoutimi Saguenéens (Les Saguenéens de Chicoutimi) holding a trophy. The design features a white border with a hologram logo in the top left and a 'Star Rookie' logo in the bottom right.
Notable Features
Features the official 'Star Rookie' designation and a 'ROOKIE CARD' sticker or aftermarket stamp on the top-loader. It includes the standard Upper Deck anti-counterfeit hologram on the card reverse (not visible but standard for this set).
Authentication Notes
The card appears authentic. The print quality, 'Upper Deck 91-92' logo font, and the specific coloring of the Saguenéens jersey match official production standards. No signs of reprint or alteration are evident.
