Description
This 1991 Stadium Club card features Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Jim Lindeman in a follow-through batting pose. The design was revolutionary for its time, featuring full-bleed photography without borders, a high-gloss finish, and the iconic gold-foil Stadium Club logo in the bottom right corner. The reverse features a thumbnail of the player's first Topps card and Kodacolor image processing details.
Key Features
High-gloss 'premium' card stock for the early 90s Junk Wax era; classic member of the Phillies; features the Kodak photography credit on the back.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic. The high-gloss coating, specific gold foil stamping of the logo, and crisp Kodak-processed photography are consistent with 1991 Topps production. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Obvious centering tilt toward the bottom; whitening/chipping along the left and top edges; potential 'stuck' surface residue (bricking) from being stored in a stack; corners show light softening.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a bulk team lot on eBay, or placed in a 'quarter box' at a local card show. Not recommended for individual sale due to shipping costs outweighing card value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the grading fee is much higher than the card's potential value. Use a 'Plain White Envelope' (PWE) shipping method if selling online to keep costs down. Combine with other 1991 Phillies cards to attract team collectors.
