Description
This 1977 Topps Monte Jackson card features a classic brown/beige card stock back with pink and black ink. The reverse displays Jackson's 1975-1976 interception records with the Los Angeles Rams, a short biography, and a 'College Corner' blurb regarding his time at San Diego State. The card number 310 is housed in a football icon in the top left corner.
Key Features
Features a dual All-Pro cornerback during the Rams' peak defensive years; includes his career-high 10 interception season stats from 1976.
Authenticity Indicators
Authenticity Confidence: High. Correct 1977 copyright line at bottom; appropriate pink/black ink saturation; standard vintage card stock thickness and texture. This card is not at high risk for counterfeiting.
Flaws to Note
Visible centering shift toward the left on the back; minor corner softening; typical fibrous card stock texture of 1970s Topps issues which can sometimes be seen as surface wear.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold on eBay as a 'Buy It Now' or on COMC (Check Out My Cards). Due to the low value, it is often sold more effectively in large lots or as part of a complete 1977 set.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless you are attempting to complete a high-grade Registry Set, as grading fees will far exceed the card's value. List with keywords '1977 Topps Rams' and 'Monte Jackson Interception Record'. Use a penny sleeve and top loader for shipping.
