1989 90 Nba Hoops Isiah Thomas Basketball Card 11 Appraisal

1989-90 NBA HOOPS Isiah Thomas Basketball Card (#11)

The item is a vintage sports trading card, specifically a basketball card, featuring NBA Hall of Famer Isiah Thomas. The card is part of the 'NBA HOOPS' collection, as indicated by the prominent logo at the bottom center. The player, Isiah Thomas, is identified by name and position ('Guard') at the top left of the card. He is depicted in an action shot, wearing a blue and red Detroit Pistons uniform with the number '11' visible, and holding a basketball while pointing upwards with his right hand. The background appears to be a typical basketball arena with blurred spectators. A circular logo for the 'DETROIT PISTONS' is displayed in the bottom right corner of the card. The card's border is a uniform light grey/silver color, and the edges of the card visible within the protective sleeve appear sharp, suggesting good condition. The card is currently housed in a clear plastic protective sleeve, which is part of a larger binder page, indicating it is likely part of a collection and has been stored to prevent damage. No significant creases, tears, or major surface abrasions are visible on the card itself, although the image quality does not allow for a microscopic examination of wear. The overall aesthetic points to an era of sports card production likely in the early 1990s or late 1980s, given the style of the card and the 'NBA HOOPS' brand which was prominent during that period. The clarity of the image and text suggests good printing quality for its time. Other cards, partially visible around this one, are also in similar protective sleeves within the same binder, including one for 'ROD HIGGINS' at the bottom and 'MANU' (possibly Manute Bol) at the top right, confirming it is part of a series.
