2000 Donruss Elite Emmitt Smith Football Trading Card

This is a 2000 Donruss Elite football trading card featuring legendary Dallas Cowboys running back Emmitt Smith. The card utilizes a premium design aesthetic characteristic of the late 1990s and early 2000s, featuring a foil-heavy composition with a mix of matte and holographic finishes. The central image depicts Smith in his classic Cowboys home white jersey and silver helmet, positioned in a dynamic ball-carrying pose. A prominent 'Donruss Elite 2000' logo is located in the top right corner, while the player's name, 'Emmitt Smith', is printed in an elegant red script at the bottom. The card's layout includes a distinctive metallic silver border with curved architectural elements framing the central photograph. In terms of condition, the card is currently housed in a clear protective top-loader sleeve, which has preserved many of its features. The centering appears slightly heavy toward the left side. The edges and corners, as viewed through the protector, show sharp integrity, though minor surface scuffing is visible on the plastic holder itself. This item represents a high-end insert or base card from a era of sports collectibles known for intricate foil stamping and multi-layered card stocks.
