1991 Topps Cris Carpenter Baseball Card #124

This is an original 1991 Topps baseball card featuring St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Cris Carpenter. The card displays a full-length action photograph of Carpenter in his mid-pitch delivery, wearing the classic road grey Cardinals uniform with red accents and the iconic number 44. The card is printed on standard semi-glossy paper stock, typical of early 1990s production. The design features a white outer border surrounding a double-piped inner frame of yellow and black. The player's name is housed in a yellow box at the bottom left, while the 'Cardinals' team name is in a red box at the bottom right. The Topps company logo is situated in the upper right. This card hails from the 'Junk Wax' era, characterized by high production volumes. Assessing the condition from the visual, the centering appears slightly biased toward the top and left edges. The corners exhibit minor signs of soft wear, particularly at the bottom left. The surface appears generally clean without major creasing or staining, though the white borders show the natural off-white toning associated with aged card stock from this period. Note: This Cris Carpenter is not to be confused with the later Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter.
