Description
This is a 1993 Fleer Ultra baseball card featuring John Olerud of the Toronto Blue Jays, card number 389. The card showcases a full-bleed glossy action photography style characteristic of the Ultra brand, with Olerud in his grey Toronto road uniform running with his glove. The bottom features his name and team in gold foil lettering along with the iconic Fleer Ultra logo in the bottom right corner.
Key Features
Features a beloved star first baseman during his peak years with the Toronto Blue Jays, right around his stellar 1993 batting title season. Part of the highly recognizable premium 1993 Fleer Ultra set featuring full-bleed photography and gold foil accents.
Authenticity Indicators
Confidence is High. Card stock, gloss finish, font styles, and the distinct gold foil Fleer Ultra stamp match authentic 1993 production standards. This card is rarely targeted for counterfeiting due to low raw market value.
Flaws to Note
Visible softening and minor fraying on the corners, typical handling wear along the edges, and potential surface micro-scratches common with the glossy UV coating of early 90s Fleer Ultra cards.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
COMC, eBay (best sold as part of a lot or team set to offset shipping costs), or local card shop bulk boxes.
Selling Tips
Not economically viable to grade due to grading fees exceeding the final value. Best sold raw as a single if combined with other Blue Jays cards or listed as part of a 1993 Fleer Ultra set builder lot. Ship securely in a penny sleeve and top loader inside a rigid envelope or bubble mailer.
