1975 Topps George Brett Rookie Card #228

This is a 1975 Topps baseball card featuring George Brett in his rookie year for the Kansas City Royals. The card is standard size (2.5 by 3.5 inches) and features the iconic 1975 multi-colored bordered design, specifically a bright orange and powder blue header/footer aesthetic. George Brett is pictured in a batting stance wearing the classic powder blue Royals uniform and purple-toned cap. The bottom of the card contains a cartoon graphic of a third baseman and the player's name in a bold sans-serif font across an orange stripe. Regarding condition, the card is held within a clear plastic top-loader sleeve, which has an adhesive price tag on the top left corner labeled "5. 50$". The card itself shows visible signs of handling; most notably, the centering appears shifted slightly toward the top and left edges. The corners exhibit some minor rounding and whitening, typical for paper cardstock of this era. A small orange blemish is visible near the top-center border above the player's hat. The surface appears to have a matte finish characteristic of the mid-70s Topps printing process. As a highly sought-after rookie card of a Hall of Fame player, the card represents a significant piece of vintage sports memorabilia from the post-war era of card collecting.
