Description
A classic 1990s card featuring Daryl Boston of the New York Mets in a dynamic sliding action shot at second base. The card utilizes the iconic full-bleed photography style and high-gloss finish that Stadium Club was famous for, with the standard gold foil-stamped logo and nameplate in the bottom right corner.
Key Features
Full-bleed photography, high-gloss premium card stock, gold foil-stamped logo, iconic 90s design.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic. High confidence based on the specific gold foil stamping and the characteristic stadium club gloss. This card is from the 'junk wax' era and is not a target for counterfeiting.
Flaws to Note
Bottom edge shows significant white chipping (common for glossy black borders); corners show slight rounding; surface likely has minor fingerprints or micro-scratches due to being stored without a sleeve.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (as part of a lot or set), COMC (Check Out My Cards), or local card shop bulk bins. Selling individually is difficult due to shipping costs exceeding card value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card; the grading fees far exceed the market value. Best sold as part of a 1992 Stadium Club set or a New York Mets team lot. Use 'plain white envelope' (PWE) shipping if sold individually to keep costs low for the buyer.
