Key Features
Features a New York Yankees player from a classic Junk Wax era set. Part of the popular Diamond Debuts subset which highlighted new talent in the early 90s.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence in authenticity. This card is not commonly counterfeited due to low market value. It features the standard Upper Deck card stock and high-quality photo printing characteristic of the era.
Flaws to Note

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best suited for eBay 'Common' lots, COMC (Check Out My Cards), or local card shop 'bargain bins.' Selling individually is difficult due to shipping costs outweighing market value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless it is for personal sentimental value, as the grading fee will be 20x the card's worth. Best sold as part of a New York Yankees team lot or a complete 1992 Upper Deck set to maximize secondary interest.
