Description
This 1991 Topps Rafael Belliard card features the Atlanta Braves shortstop in a batting stance. The design includes the iconic 'Topps 40 Years of Baseball' logo in the upper left corner. The card has a multi-colored border with a blue nameplate bar at the bottom and a scripted 'Braves' team logo.
Key Features
Includes the 40th-anniversary commemorative logo; Belliard was a key defensive specialist for the 1990s Braves dynasty.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. This is a standard cardboard stock card from 1991. The secondary market for this specific player/card is not targeted by counterfeiters due to high supply and low individual value.
Flaws to Note
Significant top-to-bottom centering issues; soft corners on the left side; visible edge wear on the top border. Typical of mass-produced 'Junk Wax' era cards.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a bulk team lot or set on eBay, or in a 10-cent bin at a local card show. Not recommended for individual auction due to shipping costs exceeding card value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as grading fees ($15-25) far exceed its market value. Combine it with other 1990s Braves cards into a 'Team Lot' to make shipping costs worthwhile for a buyer.
