Demand Level
Low/Bulk - This is a common card from a period of massive overproduction. Demand is primarily limited to Orioles team set collectors or Glenn Davis player collectors.
Valuation
Raw (Ungraded) Value
$0.05 - $0.25
Graded Value
PSA 8: $5-10, PSA 9: $15-25, PSA 10: $40-60 (Note: Grading costs exceed card value for this specific player/condition).
Comparable Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies are consistently $0.99 with free shipping (meaning the seller nets almost nothing). PSA 10 copies occasionally sell for $30-$50 to registry set collectors, but this card would not achieve that grade.
Description
This 1991 Topps Glenn Davis card features the 'Topps 40 Years of Baseball' logo celebrating the brand's anniversary. The card depicts Davis in his Baltimore Orioles uniform, holding a bat and smiling. It has the classic 1991 multi-line border design in red, orange, and brown with a white outer margin.
Key Features
Includes the Topps 40th Anniversary logo; Glenn Davis was a former All-Star; part of the iconic junk-wax era set.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence authentic. Typical recycled-grey card stock, legitimate 'Topps 40' logo printing, and period-accurate ink saturation. This card is from the high-production junk-wax era and is almost never counterfeited.
Flaws to Note
Significant left-to-right centering issues (the left white border is noticeably thinner than the right). Softness and whitening on the top-left and bottom-left corners. Minor surface wear from being kept in a loose stack without protection.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a lot on eBay or Mercari. For individual sale, COMC (Check Out My Cards) is the only viable digital storefront, though the card is generally found in 'quarter boxes' at local card shows.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the grading fee will be significantly higher than the market value of the card. Use penny sleeves and top loaders to prevent further damage. List as part of a 1991 Topps Complete Set or an Orioles Team Lot to maximize shipping efficiency.
