Art Historical Significance
A representative example of the 'Rookie Card' boom of 2020. The 'Select' brand is a cornerstone of football card collecting, and the Tie-Dye Prizm variant is a highly sought-after 'short-print' parallel within the hobby.
Notable Features
Features an 'on-card' autograph (signed directly on the surface rather than a sticker); includes a multi-color 'prime' jersey patch; highly refractive 'Tie-Dye' foil background.
Condition Issues
None visible through the holder. Possible minor surface scratches on the acrylic case or micro-streaking in the blue ink signature (common in on-card autos).
Conservation Recommendations
Store in a UV-resistant magnetic holder; keep away from direct sunlight to prevent the ink signature from fading and the chrome finish from discoloring. Maintain a stable humidity environment.
