Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Very Good (VG 3)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.50 - $2.00, Graded: Not recommended for grading
Recent Sales
Recent sales of similar 1970s common football cards in lower grades typically range from $1 to $3 on eBay.
Condition Details
Noticeable corner rounding, edge wear and chipping, slight surface staining near the top border, and poor centering shifted heavily to the right and bottom.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading as the grading fees would far exceed the market value of the card in this condition.
Card Description
Features Merv Krakau of the Buffalo Bills wearing his number 52 white jersey. The design has a thick yellow border with the team name 'BILLS' vertically on the left and an erroneous or misprinted pink 'MLB' football logo in the bottom right corner.
Notable Features
Features a notable printing error showing an MLB (Major League Baseball) logo instead of an NFL logo on a 1974 Topps Football card.
Authentication Notes
Appears authentic with period-correct vintage card stock, but the presence of the MLB logo error is a well-known misprint or oddity for this release.
