Marshall Faulk Appraisal

1994 Upper Deck Marshall Faulk Star Rookie #1

This is a 1994 Upper Deck football trading card featuring Marshall Faulk during his rookie season with the Indianapolis Colts. The card measures standard trading card dimensions of 2.5 by 3.5 inches. The front of the card displays a full-action photograph of Faulk in a white practice jersey and helmet, numbered 28, carrying a football through agility drills. Notable design elements include the 'Upper Deck' logo in the top left, a name bar at the top reading 'MARSHALL FAULK' with 'COLTS' in a white box, and a distinct 'Star Rookie' gold foil-stamped logo in the bottom left corner. The card is printed on high-quality gloss-coated cardstock, a hallmark of Upper Deck production in the mid-1990s. The centering of the image appears slightly shifted toward the top edge. The corners show minor signs of softening, though it is currently protected within a clear plastic top-loader sleeve. No significant creases, scratches, or surface stains are visible from the image, but light edge wear may be present. This specific card represents the transition of a legendary Hall of Fame running back from San Diego State to the NFL and is a staple of 1990s sports memorabilia collections.
