Description
This 1992 Fleer Ultra card features New York Mets outfielder Bobby Bonilla in a classic power-hitting follow-through pose. The card design utilizes the premium 'Ultra' glossy finish with a gold-foil stamped logo in the upper left corner and a marble-textured nameplate at the bottom. The reverse typically includes player stats and a second action photo.
Key Features
High-gloss 'Ultra' premium finish for the era; features the 6-time All-Star during his high-profile tenure with the New York Mets; early 90s 'junk wax' era nostalgia.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence (99%). This is a mass-produced card from the junk wax era with no known counterfeits. Authentic indicators include the high-gloss coating and the specific gold foil stamping of the '92 Fleer Ultra' logo.
Flaws to Note
The bottom border is significantly thicker than the top (poor vertical centering). The bottom left corner shows slight whitening/softness. Common surface scratches are typical for this high-gloss set.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a New York Mets team lot or a Bobby Bonilla player lot on eBay. Not cost-effective for individual sale on most platforms due to shipping costs.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the cost of grading significantly outweighs the potential sale price. Use an eBay Standard Envelope for cheap shipping if sold individually. Use keywords like 'Mets', 'Junk Wax', and 'Ultra' in the title.
