1980 Topps Rickey Henderson Rookie Card #482

This is a 1980 Topps baseball card featuring Rickey Henderson in his rookie season with the Oakland Athletics. The card measures the standard 2.5 by 3.5 inches and is printed on typical vintage cardstock. The design features a large action photograph of Henderson in a crouched baserunning stance, wearing the iconic Kelly green and gold Athletics uniform. Notable design elements include a colorful border with green and red accents and the Topps logo in the lower right. A facsimile signature of Rickey Henderson is printed across the middle-bottom of the image. The card is currently housed in a plastic binder sleeve. Regarding condition from this visual, there is a visible indentation or 'pock mark' on the card surface located near the center-right border. The centering appears slightly shifted toward the bottom and left edges, which is a common manufacturing trait of the 1980 set. The corners show slight softening, particularly the bottom left, though the plastic may be obscuring finer details. The colors remain vibrant without significant fading. This card is highly significant as the definitive rookie card for the MLB all-time stolen base leader, representing a key piece of modern sports memorabilia from the early 1980s.
