1991 Donruss Diamond Kings Lou Whitaker #2

This is a 1991 Donruss Diamond Kings baseball card featuring Detroit Tigers second baseman Lou Whitaker. The card is a standard 2.5 by 3.5-inch trading card made of cardstock, currently housed within a protective Ultra-Pro plastic top-loader and sleeve. The design features the iconic artistic style of the Diamond Kings series, specifically the work of artist Dick Perez, whose signature 'Perez' is visible near the bottom right of the central image. The card showcases a large painted portrait of Whitaker wearing a Tigers cap, with a smaller action shot of him batting in the foreground. The background incorporates a vibrant, pixelated multicolor pattern of green, red, and blue blocks against a solid red border with black speckled details. The top of the card features a gold banner with the 'Donruss Diamond Kings' logo. The centering appears slightly off, favoring the left side. The corners visible through the sleeve seem relatively sharp, and the colors remain highly saturated without significant fading. This card is part of a 27-card subset that was a staple of Donruss sets throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, celebrated for their stylized Dick Perez artwork rather than traditional photography.
