Description
This 1992 O-Pee-Chee Premier card features Atlanta Braves legendary left-hander Tom Glavine in a classic pitching follow-through pose. The card features the 'Premier '92' logo in stylized script at the top right and bilingual text (Pitcher/Lanceur) on the bottom, identifying its Canadian O-Pee-Chee origin. The design uses a clean white border with gold and blue accents.
Key Features
Hall of Fame player; bilingual Canadian variant (lower print run than Topps counterparts); clean 90s aesthetic.
Authenticity Indicators
Correct O-Pee-Chee font and logo; bilingual text; card stock appears to be the correct semi-gloss white used in the early 90s Premier sets. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Slight top-to-bottom centering shift; potential for minor edge wear on the white borders; minor surface scratches on the protective top loader (not necessarily the card).
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (as a 'Buy It Now' or part of a player lot), COMC for long-term sales, or Sportscard Forum.
Selling Tips
Due to low raw value, it is not recommended to grade this card unless it is a guaranteed PSA 10 candidate. For selling raw, package in a penny sleeve and top loader. Best sold as part of a Tom Glavine or 1990s Braves lot to maximize shipping efficiency.
