Demand Level
Moderate. Ichiro is a 'blue-chip' modern player whose cards are always in demand, but the Opening Day set is considered a lower-end retail product compared to Topps Chrome or Series 1/2.
Valuation
Raw (Ungraded) Value
$1.00 - $3.00
Graded Value
PSA 8: $15-25, PSA 9: $40-60, PSA 10: $150-200. (Note: Current condition is likely not high enough to justify the grading fee).
Comparable Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies of this card range from $0.99 to $2.50 plus shipping. PSA 10 copies occasionally fetch $150+, but those are rare due to the thin card stock of this specific set.
Description
This 2007 Topps Opening Day card features Seattle Mariners legend Ichiro Suzuki in his iconic batting stance. The design includes the red, white, and blue 'Opening Day 2007' logo at the bottom right of the image, a facsimile autograph across the lower portion of the photo, and the characteristic colored square borders of the 2007 Topps design.
Key Features
Features future Hall of Famer Ichiro Suzuki. Includes the popular Opening Day retail-exclusive set branding and a facsimile signature. Ichiro cards maintain a high floor due to his international following.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence in authenticity. The print dot pattern is consistent with 2007 Topps production, the card stock thickness is standard, and the Opening Day logo colors are vibrant and correctly registered. This is not a commonly faked card.
Flaws to Note
Significant white edge-wear and 'chipping' is visible on the top edge of the card against the white border. The card is currently stored in a multi-pocket binder page which often causes surface micro-scratching. Bottom-left corner shows slight softening.
Selling Guide

Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the grading fee will exceed the card's market value. If selling on eBay, use 'Ichiro Suzuki 2007 Topps Opening Day #110 Mariners' in the title. Remove from the binder page and place in a fresh penny sleeve and top loader before shipping.
