The design features a white border with internal blue and black piping typical of the early 90s 'Junk Wax' era.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell

Selling Tips
Do not grade this card. To maximize value, group it with other 1991 Topps Dodgers or include it in a 1991 Topps complete set. For shipping individual low-value cards, use the eBay Standard Envelope (ESE) to keep costs under $1.
