Condition Grade
PSA 9 (Mint). The centering appears excellent on the front. Corners look sharp through the penny sleeve, and edges show no visible chipping. However, Heritage card stock is susceptible to surface dimples or minor corner softess common to the 1973-style matte finish.

Description
An exceptional 2022 Topps Heritage High Number Real One Autograph featuring Kansas City Royals superstar Bobby Witt Jr. This card uses the iconic 1973 Topps design and features a crisp, blue ink on-card signature. Witt Jr. is depicted in his Royals home white jersey with a 'RC' rookie logo in the upper left. The back includes his minor league statistics and the Topps authentication 'Topps Certified Autograph Issue' guarantee.
Key Features
This is a 'Real One' on-card autograph from Witt Jr.'s true rookie year. Witt Jr. is currently an AL MVP contender, significantly driving the value of his early certified autographs. Heritage is a highly collected set by purists due to the vintage card stock and on-card (rather than sticker) signatures.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The blue ink shows the natural feathering of a marker on cardstock, and the 'Topps Certified Autograph Issue' text is present. The card stock has the correct thickness and texture for the 2022 Heritage High Number release.
Flaws to Note
The matte card stock of the Heritage set is notoriously fragile. Check the bottom blue border for tiny white 'chipping' spots. There appears to be a slight glare on the photo, so the surface must be inspected for light scratches or print lines before grading.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for maximum exposure, but for a card of this value, MySlabs or the PWCC/Goldin Weekly Auctions are excellent options to ensure secure payment and professional handling.
Selling Tips
Due to the high price delta between a PSA 9 and PSA 10, grading this card is highly recommended if it appears flawless under a jeweler's loupe. Use high-resolution photos outside of the sleeve to show the card's surface. Ship via USPS Ground Advantage or Priority with full insurance and signature confirmation.
