Flaws to Note
Visible corner wear on the upper right; slight top-to-bottom centering bias. The porous card stock used in 1991 often leads to microscopic chipping along the yellow edges.

eBay (as part of a player lot), COMC (for slow-burn sale), or Sportlots. Individually, the shipping cost often outweighs the card's value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless it is a flawless candidate for a PSA 10, as the grading fee will result in a net loss. Best sold in a 'Cleveland Indians' or 'Carlos Baerga' team lot to combine shipping for buyers.
