Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Very Good (VG 3)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $1.00 - $3.00 | Graded (PSA 10): $40.00 - $60.00
Recent Sales
Recent raw copies of this insert set (e.g., Stockton, Miller, Robinson) typically sell for $1-$5 on eBay. High-grade PSA 10 specimens occasionally reach higher premiums due to the sensitivity of the holofoil surface.
Condition Details
Visible moderate to heavy edge wear and chipping along the top and bottom borders. Corner softening is evident, particularly on the bottom left and right. Possible surface issues with the holofoil coating typical for this era.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The visible edge wear and corner damage will likely prevent a grade higher than a 4 or 5, making the grading fee significantly higher than the card's final market value.
Card Description
The card features San Antonio Spurs Legend David Robinson in his #50 road jersey, holding a basketball above his head in a post-up or shooting motion. The design includes a 'Postman' title in stylized red 3D lettering at the top over a vibrant, vertical refractive holofoil background with sunray-like patterns.
Notable Features
Features a specialized 'Postman' insert theme celebrating elite post players. High-gloss holofoil finish. Features a Hall of Fame player.
Authentication Notes
Card shows authentic period-correct holofoil patterns and Topps logo font. The wear pattern on the card stock is consistent with 1990s UV-coated paper stock.
