Comparable Sales
Individual raw copies of this card frequently sell in bulk lots for pennies. Higher grade (PSA 8+) copies occasionally sell for $30-50 to set registry collectors, but this specific specimen's centering would likely prevent it from reaching that tier.
Description
This is the reverse side of a 1977 Topps football card featuring Scott Laidlaw of the Dallas Cowboys. The back features a dark pink and tan color scheme characteristic of the 1977 set, displaying Laidlaw's career rushing statistics from 1975-1976, biographical data, and a 'College Corner' blurb about his time at Stanford University.
Key Features
Vintage 1970s football card from the iconic 1977 Topps set; featured member of the Dallas Cowboys during the Tom Landry era.
Authenticity Indicators
Authenticity confidence is High. The card displays the correct pixelated printing pattern of the 1977 Topps set, the '©1977 TOPPS CHEWING GUM INC.' copyright line, and the appropriate fibrous gray card stock consistent with 1970s production.
Flaws to Note
The card exhibits significant centering issues, being heavily biased toward the left side. The corners show visible softening and wear, and the card stock appears to have typical age-related toning/darkening common for 1970s gray-back stock.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (as part of a team set or bulk lot), COMC, or Sportlots.
Selling Tips
Due to the low individual value of this base card, it is best sold as part of a 1977 Dallas Cowboys team set or a larger 1977 Topps starter lot. Grading is not recommended as the cost of the grading service would significantly exceed the market value of the card. Use 'Standard Envelope' for shipping to keep costs low.
