Dylan Crews Appraisal

Dylan Crews Collegiate National Team Stars & Stripes Baseball Card

This item is a modern sports trading card, specifically a baseball card featuring Dylan Crews. The card is rectangular, made of stiff cardstock, and appears to have a holographic or chrome finish on the border, characterized by a shimmering, rainbow-like effect and a pattern of small blue stars on a silver background. The central image depicts Dylan Crews in a baseball uniform, wearing a glove and seemingly ready to field. He is dressed in a dark blue or black jersey with 'USA' visible on the chest, light gray pants, and an American flag patch on his right sleeve. He also wears sunglasses pushed up on his head. Above the player's image, the text "COLLEGIATE NATIONAL TEAM" is present on a dark gray or black banner. Below the image, his name "DYLAN CREWS" is prominently displayed on a white banner with red and blue horizontal stripes resembling a stylized American flag. To the right of his name, there is a circular logo that reads "USA BASEBALL" with additional text "STARS & STRIPES" within. Below the name, there are five white stars on a dark background, the significance of which is not immediately clear from the image but could indicate a series or rating. The card's corners appear sharp, and the surface reflectivity suggests it is in excellent condition with no visible creases, scuffs, or significant wear. The holographic border is a notable feature, indicating a special parallel or insert card often found in modern card sets, enhancing its visual appeal and potentially its rarity. Given the 'COLLEGIATE NATIONAL TEAM' designation and the player's age, this card likely dates from the early 2020s, aligning with contemporary sports card manufacturing techniques.
