1989 Score Joe Montana Football Card #1

This is a standard 2.5 by 3.5 inch trading card from the 1989 Score football series, featuring Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana of the San Francisco 49ers. The card features a vibrant green-to-blue gradient border design characteristic of the late 1980s 'junk wax' era. The central image depicts Montana in his home red jersey dropping back to pass, with teammate Guy McIntyre visible in the background. The 'Score' brand logo is prominently displayed in the upper right corner in a blue and white italicized font. The player's name and team are printed at the bottom in a red bar. The card is currently housed in a clear protective polypropylene sleeve, which is placed on a small wooden display easel. Regarding condition, the card appears to have relatively sharp corners for its age, though the top edge shows a slight factory rough cut typical of Score production. The centering appears slightly biased towards the right border. No major creases, surface scratches, or staining are visible through the sleeve, though a full inspection outside of the plastic would be required for a professional grade. This specific card represents a peak period in Montana's career and is a staple for collectors of 1980s NFL memorabilia.
