Description
Up for consideration is a 1984 Topps Baseball card featuring Atlanta Braves team leaders Dale Murphy (.302 BA) and Craig McMurtry (3.08 ERA), card number #132. The front features a clean white border with a distinctive vertical purple 'BRAVES' text box on the left and a blue header reading 'BATTING & PITCHING LEADERS'. Two individual player photos are framed nicely with yellow name and stat boxes below, alongside the classic Atlanta Braves logo.
Key Features
Features two-time National League MVP Dale Murphy during his prime years with the Atlanta Braves, part of the iconic 1984 Topps wooden-border themed back / white border front design.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence in authenticity. Card stock, gloss, typography, and color saturation match authentic 1984 Topps production standards. Not a heavily counterfeited card due to low individual card value.
Flaws to Note
Noticeable centering bias on the front showing a heavier top border compared to the bottom. Minor corner wear consistent with a raw vintage card from the mid-1980s.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or COMC (Check Out My Cards) as part of a lot or bulk submission, as individual raw card value is too low to justify standalone shipping fees.
Selling Tips
Best sold raw as part of a 1984 Topps team set or Dale Murphy player collection. Secure in a penny sleeve and top loader before shipping in a rigid cardboard mailer.
