Description
This is the reverse side of the 1972 Topps Jim Tyrer card #111. The card back features a blue and green color scheme on gray paper stock. It includes a short biographical write-up about Jim Tyrer's career as a tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs, noting his All-Pro and Pro Bowl selections. A small comic illustration on the top left shows a player carrying a money bag, representing Tyrer's commercial ventures.
Key Features
Features a legendary Kansas City Chiefs offensive tackle and 9-time Pro Bowler. Iconic 1972 Topps design featuring the player's All-Time American Football League team status.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic period-correct gray card stock. The 'T.C.G. PRTD. IN U.S.A.' copyright and double asterisk (**) align with 1972 production standards. Print registration of the blue ink shows appropriate bleed for the era. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
The card exhibits significant corner rounding and heavy edge wear, particularly on the left and right sides. There is visible surface chipping on the blue border on the reverse. Centering appears slightly shifted toward the bottom-left on the reverse. General surface toning/darkening is consistent with aging cardboard.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold on eBay as a 'Buy It Now' with 'Best Offer' or via COMC. It is also a great candidate for a bulk lot of 1970s Chiefs players or 1972 Topps set-builder lots.
Selling Tips
Due to the moderate condition and player tier, grading is not recommended as the cost of grading exceeds the market value. List with high-quality scans of both front and back. Use a penny sleeve and top-loader for shipping. Highlight 'Kansas City Chiefs' and '9x Pro Bowler' in the keywords.
