Minor corner softening typical of early 90s Topps card stock, slight border chipping along the upper edge, and standard light surface scuffing common on glossy insert cards from this era.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay, COMC, or local card shows. Due to the low raw value, selling individually online may incur high relative shipping and platform fees, making COMC or a lot sale more practical.
Selling Tips
Keep the card in its penny sleeve and top loader for all photos. Use keywords like Hall of Famer, Twins, 90s Insert, and Star Power in your title. Since the raw value is low, consider bundling it with other Kirby Puckett cards or Twins inserts to increase the lot value and offset shipping costs.
