Description
A classic specimen from the 'Junk Wax' era, this 1993 Fleer Ultra Kevin McReynolds card features the high-gloss, full-bleed photography the Ultra brand was known for. It depicts McReynolds in his Kansas City Royals uniform finishing a swing. The bottom features gold-foil stamped lettering for the player name and team designation on a marble-textured banner.
Key Features
Premium 1990s high-gloss finish, gold foil stamping, and an action shot of a consistent 1980s-90s power hitter. Part of a set known for its high-end photography.
Authenticity Indicators
Authenticity confidence: High. This card is printed on thick Ultra cardstock with a high-gloss UV coating. The gold foil is embossed correctly. It is not a card that is typically counterfeited due to high production volume and low market value.
Flaws to Note
Significant white edge-chipping on the left and right sides due to the dark, full-bleed ink. Corner softness on the bottom left. Minor surface scratching visible under direct light. Off-center left-to-right (approx 60/40).
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a team lot or set on eBay, or in a 'quarter box' at a local card show. Shipping as a single card would cost more than the card's value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the fees will far exceed the return. List it as part of a 'Kansas City Royals' bulk lot or a 1993 Ultra 'choose your card' listing to save on shipping and attract set builders. Use a penny sleeve to protect the gloss.
