Description
The reverse of this 1977 Topps Bill Bergey card features a classic 1970s tan/gray cardstock design with pink and black ink. It displays Bergey's 'Interception Record' from 1969-1976 with the Bengals and Eagles. The footer includes a 'College Corner' section noting his time at Arkansas State and the 1969 College All-Star Game. Copyrighted 1977 Topps Chewing Gum, Inc. Printed in U.S.A.
Key Features
Bill Bergey was an 5-time Pro-Bowler and a key member of the 'Gangs Green' defense. This card is from his tenure with the Philadelphia Eagles. The card highlights his status as an Eagles MVP.
Authenticity Indicators
High Confidence. The specific pink hue and the halftone dot pattern in the 'Interception Record' headers are consistent with authentic 1977 Topps production. No evidence of modern reprint gloss or excessive bleaching.
Flaws to Note
Softened corners on all four points, particularly the bottom left. Top-to-bottom centering is biased towards the top. Visible edge chipping on the right vertical side. Typical 1977 'rough' cardstock texture.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (as part of a lot or cheap PWE listing), COMC (for set builders), or local card shows in the Philadelphia area.
Selling Tips
Due to the low value, it is not recommended to grade this card. Sell it raw in a plain white envelope (PWE) to keep shipping costs low for set builders. Use keywords like 'Lindenwold's finest' or '70s Eagles Defense' to attract team collectors.
