Flair Preview Card Appraisal

1995 Flair Preview Jerry Rice Trading Card

This is a premium 1995 Flair Preview Jerry Rice football trading card, showcasing the legendary San Francisco 49ers wide receiver. The card features a dual-image design on the front: a large portrait of Rice in the foreground and an action shot of him in his away white jersey in the background. It is printed on an extra-thick, high-quality cardstock typical of the Flair brand, which was known for its 'premium' feel during the mid-1990s. The '95 Flair Preview' logo is prominently displayed in gold foil on the left side, identifying it as an advance release from that year's set. Gold foil lettering is also used for Rice's name and team along the right margin. The card is currently housed in a clear semi-rigid plastic top-loader for protection. Regarding condition, the card appears to have relatively sharp corners and clean edges through the holder, though there may be minor surface wear or 'chipping' common with high-gloss, dark-bordered cards from this era. The color saturation remains vibrant, and the foil stamping is crisp. This specific card represents a high-end insert style from Fleer's Flair line, targeted at collectors who appreciated superior craftsmanship and aesthetic appeal over standard paper card issues.
