Upper Deck NHL Canvas Steven Stamkos Hockey Card

This item is an Upper Deck NHL Canvas hockey card featuring Steven Stamkos, a prominent player for the Tampa Bay Lightning, identifiable by his jersey number '91' and lightning bolt logo on his pants. The card is rectangular, made of cardstock, and exhibits a matte or 'canvas-like' finish, giving it a somewhat textured appearance, particularly around the borders, which are designed to resemble a canvas frame with visible brushstroke-like texture. The primary colors in the image are white and blue from the player's uniform, set against a muted background of a hockey rink and arena elements, including 'GEICO' advertising visible on the boards. The image captures Stamkos in an action pose on the ice, holding a hockey stick. The card clearly states 'NHL CANVAS' and 'CANVAS LNH' (French equivalent) at the bottom, above the player's name, and features the 'Upper Deck Deck' logo in the bottom left corner. The overall condition appears to be good with sharp corners and no obvious creases or significant surface damage visible; however, a precise assessment would require closer inspection under proper lighting from all angles. The printing quality seems high, with good color saturation and detail, particularly on the player's uniform and facial features. This specific card likely belongs to a modern trading card series, given the branding and player, placing its estimated age within the last two decades. The 'canvas' design is a notable feature, distinguishing it from standard gloss-finish cards, suggesting it's part of a special insert or parallel set, which often indicates higher quality or collectibility within its series.
