1981 Topps Cleveland Indians Team Baseball Card #664

This is a standard 2.5 by 3.5 inch vintage baseball card produced by the Topps Chewing Gum company for the 1981 Major League Baseball season. The card features a horizontal orientation showcasing the full Cleveland Indians team photograph against an urban skyline backdrop. The design includes a bold vertical text block on the right side reading 'CLEVELAND INDIANS' in black capital letters and 'DAVE GARCIA, MANAGER' in red. A small portrait inset of manager Dave Garcia is positioned in the upper left corner within a yellow and blue frame. The bottom right features the distinctive 1981 Topps design motif: a stylized blue baseball cap with a red brim. The card is printed on a textured, off-white cardboard stock characteristic of early 1980s sports memorabilia. The color palette consists of primary reds, blues, and yellows typical of the era's printing technology. Observation shows the card is stored within a plastic protective binder sleeve. The centering appears slightly heavy toward the bottom edge, and there is visible minor whitening on the corners, particularly the top right, indicating light circulation or handling wear. No major creases or staining are visible from the front view, and the print registration appears sharp.
