1994 Upper Deck SP Football Derrick Alston Rookie Card #6/750
This is a 1994 Upper Deck SP football trading card featuring wide receiver Derrick Alston (#84) of the San Francisco 49ers. The card is a limited edition 'Rookie' insert, specifically hand-numbered at the bottom center as 656/750. Physically, the card features the iconic bronze-colored foil finish characteristic of the mid-90s premium SP sets. The central image shows Alston in action, wearing the classic 49ers white away jersey and gold pants. The design includes a die-cut style border within the graphics and a silver Upper Deck hologram at the bottom right corner for authenticity. In terms of condition, the card is housed in a clear protective sleeve and top-loader. While the foil surface appears largely intact, this specific 1994 SP set is notorious for 'chipping' along the sensitive foil edges and corners; visible softening is apparent on the bottom corners. The centering looks slightly heavy toward the right margin. The card represents the high-end manufacturing shift of the 1990s hobby, utilizing premium cardstock and serial numbering to create artificial scarcity, making it a distinct piece of gridiron memorabilia from the late 20th century.
