Selling Tips
Due to the low value, this card is not a candidate for professional grading unless it is in absolute flawless 'Gem Mint' condition. For listing, use keywords like '1977 Topps Football', 'Raiders', and 'Stanford'. Ship via eBay Standard Envelope ($0.60-$1.00) to keep costs low for the buyer.
