2002 Upper Deck Roger Clemens Baseball Card (#41) - Graded EX/NM 6

This is a 2002 Upper Deck baseball card featuring the legendary pitcher Roger Clemens, identified as card number 41 in the set. The card is professionally preserved in a clear, hard plastic 'Grade My Cards' (GMC) slab, which acts as a protective sonic-welded case to prevent environmental damage and tampering. The card layout is vertical (though shown horizontally in the image), showcasing a high-action photograph of Clemens in a white and pinstriped jersey. The typography on the card back includes his name in a large, modern sans-serif font along with his career statistics and achievement highlights. The card exhibits typical high-quality gloss characteristic of early 2000s Upper Deck productions. According to the grading header, the item is ranked as EX/NM 6 (Excellent-Near Mint), with the certificate number 47318158. The white label at the top clearly denotes the year, brand, player name, and card number. Visible condition factors within this grade typically allow for minor surface wear, slight corner softening, or minor centering issues, though the card appears well-preserved within its housing. The manufacturing reflects the 'Super Premium' era of sports cards where high-stock paper and crisp photography were standard for the Upper Deck Company.
