1991 Pro Set Platinum Jerry Rice Football Card (#156)

This is a 1991 Pro Set Platinum Series football trading card featuring San Francisco 49ers legendary wide receiver Jerry Rice. The card is standard size (2.5" x 3.5") printed on high-gloss cardstock, characteristic of the 'Platinum' premium line. The front features a full-bleed, action-oriented photograph of Rice celebrating with teammates, showcasing the iconic gold 49ers helmet and white jersey with red numerals. A distinguishing feature is the circular 'Pro Set Platinum' logo embossed or printed in silver/reflective foil on the bottom left corner. The image capture is dynamic, focusing on the emotion of the game rather than a static pose. The card appears to be housed in a protective clear plastic sleeve and a top-loader, resting on a small black display stand. Visible condition indicates sharp corners and edges, though the centering and surface integrity would require high-resolution inspection. This item hails from the 'Junk Wax Era' of the early 1990s, where high production volumes were common, yet this specific Platinum series was marketed as a high-end alternative to the base Pro Set product. The craftsmanship is noted for its early use of glossy UV coating and metallic foil elements which intended to provide a luxury feel to collectors at the time.
