CHIPPER JONES | 1993 SP 280 | FOIL | PSA NM-MT 8

PSA Graded Card - Certification #130848164 - Grade: NM-MT 8

This card features a young Chipper Jones as part of the 1993 Upper Deck SP set, one of the most iconic rookie card sets from the 1990s. The card sports a full-bleed, color photo of Jones crouching with a bat, wearing an Atlanta Braves uniform and cap. The background is a distinctive metallic foil, which is a key feature of the SP Premier Prospects subset. The Premier Prospects logo with a silver/foil accent appears in the bottom right corner. The left border shows a colored panel with 'Atlanta Braves' and Chipper Jones' name is printed in gold foil at the bottom. The foil finish often makes these cards susceptible to edge and surface wear. The card shown is encased and graded PSA 8 (NM-MT), indicating only minor wear. No autograph is present and this is the standard base foil card, which is known for its fragility and importance as Chipper Jones' top rookie card. The SP set introduced significant printing innovations like the use of metallic foil and glossy surfaces, making it a standout product of its era.
