Description
A classic 1991 Topps card featuring Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Franklin Stubbs. The card features the 'Topps 40 Years of Baseball' anniversary logo in the top left corner. Stubbs is shown in a portrait shot wearing the Brewers pinstripe home jersey and hat. The design features a colorful inner border and the team name in script across the bottom.
Key Features
Features the 40th Anniversary Topps logo. Franklin Stubbs was a key member of the 1988 World Series champion Dodgers, though pictured here with the Brewers.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. This card is printed on vintage grey/brown cardstock typical of 1991 Topps. The ink patterns and 40th-anniversary logo are consistent with mass-produced sets of this era. Not a target for counterfeiting.
Flaws to Note
Significant left-to-right centering issues (thick right border, thin left border). Minor soft corners on the bottom right. Characteristic 1991 Topps rough-cut edges.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold in bulk on eBay or COMC. Individual sale is difficult due to shipping costs vs. card value. Good for a local card shop's 10-cent bin.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card; the grading fee is significantly higher than the potential sale price. If selling online, list as part of a Milwaukee Brewers team lot or a 1991 Topps completion lot to maximize interest.
