1990 Pro Set Carl Banks #215
This is a 1990 Pro Set football card featuring Carl Banks, the standout Linebacker for the New York Giants. The card measures the standard sports card size of 2.5 by 3.5 inches and is constructed from cardstock with a semi-gloss finish. The design features a vibrant red border with a distinctive horizontal white line pattern on the right and left sides. The top of the card includes the 'N' NFL logo, the player name 'CARL BANKS' in a teal box, and the official NFL shield. The bottom border displays the 'PRO SET - THE OFFICIAL NFL CARD' branding in white text. The central image is an action shot of Banks in his home Giants uniform engaging a Washington Redskins player. Regarding condition, the card shows significant 'whitening' or chipping along the right-side edge, which is a common manufacturing issue with this high-ink-density set. The corners appear slightly soft, particularly at the bottom right. The centering seems slightly biased toward the top-right. This card dates from the 'Junk Wax' era of the late 80s to early 90s, characterized by extreme mass production, which typically limits individual value despite the card's iconic design.
