Anthony Volpe 202X Topps New York Yankees Rookie Card in One-Touch Holder

The item is a modern baseball trading card featuring Anthony Volpe, a player for the New York Yankees. The card is encased in a clear, rigid plastic slab, likely a 'one-touch' magnetic holder, which is designed to protect the card's condition. The holder appears to be approximately 3.5 inches by 5 inches, with a slight thickness to accommodate the card securely. The card itself exhibits a standard rectangular shape, typical of modern trading cards. The front of the card displays a primary action shot of Anthony Volpe in a New York Yankees pinstriped uniform, mid-swing with a baseball bat. The image is vibrant with clear details of the uniform and equipment. Below the main image, in the bottom left corner, there is a headshot of Volpe smiling, positioned over a gray-toned background. To the right of the headshot, the classic New York Yankees logo (the 'NY' interlocking letters) is prominently displayed with the word 'Yankees' written across it in a script font, integrated into the card's design. The player's name, 'ANTHONY VOLPE', is printed in white capital letters on a black horizontal strip at the very bottom center of the card. A small 'RC' symbol, indicating it is likely a 'rookie card,' is visible in the bottom right quadrant, near the Yankees logo. Also in the bottom right, there's a blue hexagonal design with 'SS' inside, indicating his position (Shortstop). The top left corner of the card features the 'Topps' logo, identifying the manufacturer. The card appears to be in excellent condition, with no visible creases, tears, or edge wear, which is consistent with it being protected within a hard case. The colors are crisp, and the printing appears sharp. Given the 'RC' designation and the visible cues, this card is from a recent Topps baseball card set, likely from the early 2020s, coinciding with Volpe's rookie season or prospect status.
