1991 Score Baseball Card - Whitey Herzog #879
This is a standard-sized baseball card featuring Hall of Fame manager Whitey Herzog of the St. Louis Cardinals. The card is from the 1991 Score series. The visual design is distinctive, featuring a 'color-bleed' or cutout aesthetic where the upper half of the image (depicting Herzog in a red Cardinals jacket and cap pointing toward the field) is set against a solid dark blue or black background, outlined with a thin white silhouette. The lower half of the image transitions into an in-game photograph of the dirt and grass. The nameplate at the bottom is a yellow rectangle with orange horizontal stripes, identifying him as 'WHITEY HERZOG MANAGER' in bold black sans-serif font. The card appears to be printed on gloss-coated cardstock. Regarding condition, it is currently housed in a clear protective polypropylene sleeve and displayed on a small wooden easel. The corners appear relatively sharp through the plastic, and the centering looks vertically balanced. No visible creases or surface scratches are immediately apparent on the front, though the slight glare on the sleeve makes a definitive surface grade difficult. This card represent the 'junk wax' era of the early 1990s, characterized by high production volumes but significant nostalgia for regional St. Louis fans.
