Raghib Ismail Card Appraisal

1990 Pro Set Raghib Ismail Notre Dame Walter Camp Player of the Year Football Card

This item is a vintage football trading card featuring Raghib Ismail from Notre Dame, specifically celebrating him as the 1990 Walter Camp Player of the Year. The card is produced by Pro Set, indicated by the 'NFL PRO SET' logo in the upper left corner, accompanied by the text 'THE OFFICIAL NFL CARD'. The central image on the card depicts Raghib Ismail in action, dressed in a dark football jersey with the number '25' prominently displayed. He is shown running on a green football field, presumably during a game, with a blurred background suggesting a stadium full of spectators. Another player, wearing a light-colored jersey with '31' visible, is seen in the background on the right. The card's color palette is vibrant, with the green of the field and the varied tones of the players' uniforms and the crowd. Below the main image, there's a horizontal band with a wood-grain or textured appearance, containing the text 'RAGHIB ISMAIL • NOTRE DAME' in white lettering, and directly beneath it, '1990 WALTER CAMP PLAYER OF THE YEAR'. The card appears to be made of standard cardstock, typical for sports trading cards of its era. From the visible portion, the edges appear relatively sharp, and the surface seems to be in good condition with no obvious creases, tears, or significant abrasions. This suggests good preservation for an item from the early 1990s. The overall craftsmanship is consistent with mass-produced collectible cards of the period, designed for durability and visual appeal. This piece represents a collectible from the golden age of sports card collecting.
