Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies of this card frequently occur in bulk / junk wax lots or for less than $1 individual. PSA 10 examples sell for a modest premium covering grading costs.
Condition Details
Visible centering issues with a heavy tilt toward the left/bottom. Soft corners are evident, and there is minor edge whitening. Surface appears to have light handling wear.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The card is a common from the 'Junk Wax' era with high production volume. The visible centering and corner wear suggest it would not achieve the Gem Mint status required to have any significant value increase over the grading fee.
Card Description

Authentication Notes
Likely authentic. This is a common card from a high-production era, making it an unlikely candidate for counterfeiting. The card stock and Fleer '90 branding match the factory standards of 1990.
