Elite Series Football Appraisal

Darnell Wright Rookie Card (Donruss Elite Series)

This item is a modern sports trading card, likely from the 'Donruss Elite' series due to the visible 'ELITE' logo in the top right corner. The card features an image of American football player Darnell Wright in what appears to be a practice or game uniform, bearing the number 53. The background of the card is a vibrant, textured green holographic pattern composed of numerous small, repeating circular or oval shapes, creating a 'disco ball' or 'pixelated' effect. The card's design incorporates a dark purple or black border along the top, bottom, and right side, with the green holographic pattern covering the majority of the front. A prominent white banner extends diagonally across the lower front, displaying the player's name, 'DARNELL WRIGHT,' in a bold, sans-serif font. Below this banner, a set of thin, parallel gold lines adds a touch of metallic accent. The logo for the Chicago Bears, an orange 'C' with a white outline, is positioned in the lower left corner, indicating the player's team affiliation. In the top left corner, there is a shield-shaped logo with 'RC' inscribed, signifying that this is a 'Rookie Card.' The card appears to be in relatively good condition, though some minor surface wear or smudging is visible, consistent with handling. The holographic finish might obscure some finer details of the player's image, but the overall presentation suggests a high-quality, potentially collectible modern card. The design elements, including the holographic foil and geometric patterns, suggest a contemporary manufacturing period, likely from the 2020s, aligning with Darnell Wright's recent entry into professional football. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced trading cards, with clear printing and precise cuts.
