Aaron Judge Card Appraisal

2017 Topps Series 2 Aaron Judge Rookie Card (ASG Design)

This is a 2017 Topps flagship style rookie card featuring New York Yankees superstar Aaron Judge. The card prominently displays the standard 'RC' logo in the upper right. It depicts Judge in mid-motion throwing a baseball, wearing his New York Yankees road gray uniform and a navy blue cap featuring the 2017 All-Star Game patch. Unlike the standard Series 2 base card which features an action hitting shot, this specific image suggests a variation or an oversized promotional print. The bottom contains a chevron-style name bar with 'AARON JUDGE' in red and 'NEW YORK YANKEES' in blue. The 'ASG' (All-Star Game) star logo is present on the bottom left corner. Condition-wise, the item shows significant distress: there is a heavy vertical crease running down the right side through the 'RC' logo, a noticeable 'ding' or indentation near the center-right of Judge's torso, and visible surface wear with softening corners. The card appears to be housed in a protective plastic sleeve, though the underlying cardstock shows substantial handling wear that would significantly impact a professional grade.
