Description
A striking card from the 2023 Topps World Baseball Classic set featuring South Korean superstar Jung Hoo Lee. The card showcases Lee in his Team South Korea uniform during his powerful left-handed swing. The design features a colorful blue and magenta geometric background with the South Korean flag integrated behind the player and the official World Baseball Classic logo in the bottom right corner.
Key Features
Features the San Francisco Giants' high-profile international signing. Representing South Korea in the WBC, this card is highly collectible for international fans and MLB prospectors alike.
Authenticity Indicators
Correct Topps holographic logo on the top left; proper font weight on player name and 'South Korea' text; accurate WBC tournament logo. High confidence in authenticity.
Flaws to Note
Corners appear sharp from the photo, but the bottom edge centering seems slightly off. Potential for minor surface scratches or 'dimples' common on high-gloss modern Topps stock.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (best for international reach), COMC (for long-term 'set and forget' selling), or San Francisco-area local card groups on Facebook.
Selling Tips
Listing should include keywords like 'SF Giants', 'Rookie Era', 'KBO Star', and 'WBC'. Given the value, shipping via eBay Standard Envelope for items under $20 is recommended to maximize profit. Grading is only recommended if the card looks absolutely flawless to chase a PSA 10.
