2004 Upper Deck Sean Taylor Rookie Card #221

This is a standard-sized trading card (2.5" x 3.5") featuring Sean Taylor of the Washington Redskins during his rookie year. The card is produced by Upper Deck and features a full-bleed action photograph of Taylor in his white away jersey and burgundy pants (number 36) making a tackle against a Denver Broncos player. The layout includes a burgundy textured footer bar across the bottom containing the player's name in bold white serif font, with 'REDSKINS' printed beneath in smaller gold lettering. The Upper Deck logo is located in the upper right corner. Physical construction consists of high-gloss cardstock with silver foil accents. Upon inspection from the provided image, the card appears to be housed in a clear plastic poly-bag or soft sleeve. The corners appear sharp at this resolution, though the bottom-right corner shows slight white edging typical of paper stock from this era. Centering appears slightly shifted towards the right margin. There are no visible surface creases or heavy scratches through the protective sleeve. This specific card captures Taylor in his debut season, which ended tragically early in his career, making it a highly sought-after piece for football memorabilia collectors.
