Recent Sales
Recent sales for mid-tier stars in the 2007 Topps Black set range from $10-$25 depending on condition; however, the heavy surface scratching on this specimen significantly lowers its value compared to NM/Mint examples.
Condition Details
Extensive circular surface scratching visible across the center of the image area, likely from storage wear. Heavy edge whitening and chipping on the left black border. Centering appears slightly off-top to bottom.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. Due to the severe surface scratches and edge wear on the delicate black borders, it would likely receive a grade of 4 to 6 (VG-EX to EX-MT), which would not cover the cost of grading fees.
Card Description
Features Jim Edmonds in a St. Louis Cardinals uniform, running the bases. Includes a facsimile signature across the bottom. The top text reads 'ST. LOUIS CARDINALS' and the bottom reads 'JIM EDMONDS'.
Notable Features
Black border parallel variety, which is significantly rarer than the standard white border base card. The 2007 Topps Black parallels were sequentially numbered to 56 on the reverse to commemorate the number of years Topps had been producing cards.
Authentication Notes
Authentic 2007 Topps stock. The black ink depth and gloss consistency are typical for this era of Topps parallels. The visible 'Topps' logo stamping at the top center is correct for this production run.
