Description
This 1987 Sportflics card features Hubie Brooks of the Montreal Expos. The card uses proprietary 'Magic Motion' lenticular technology, allowing the image to change or show action when tilted. Brooks is shown in his classic Expos road jersey with the iconic tri-color cap. The card features an orange inner border and a white outer border.
Key Features
Nostalgic 1980s 3-D design; Hubie Brooks was a 2-time All-Star and Silver Slugger winner; Iconic Montreal Expos branding.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic. Confidence: High. The lenticular 'ribbed' texture is very difficult to replicate. This card is not targeted by counterfeiters due to its low market value.
Flaws to Note
Visible surface scratches on the plastic lenticular lens; soft top-left corner; minor edge chipping along the right side; common 'dimpling' in the plastic surface.
