Comparable Sales
Recent eBay sales show bulk lots of 1988 Topps selling for $5-10 per 100 cards. Individual common cards rarely sell unless in PSA 10 condition.
Description
A lot of three 1988 Topps baseball card backs. The cards feature a classic orange/red cardstock back with full career statistics and a small 'Coming of Age' or career highlight blurb at the bottom.
Key Features
High card numbers from the 1988 Topps set. Keith Moreland was a notable member of the 1984 Cubs; Jimmy Jones was a former first-round pick.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic. These are standard 1988 Topps cards on typical brown/orange 'garbage' cardstock. High confidence; these cards are not known to be counterfeited due to high production volume.
Flaws to Note
Significant corner rounding, visible white chipping on the edges, and possible surface scuffing from being stored loose. Centering on the Jimmy Jones card appears shifted toward the top.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a larger team set or bulk lot on eBay, or donated to a local charity/youth group. Individual sale is not financially viable due to shipping costs.
Selling Tips
Do not grade these cards. To maximize value, combine them with other cards from the same teams (Cubs, Padres, Cardinals) and sell as a 'Team Lot' using eBay Standard Envelope for cheap shipping.
