Below grade 10 the guide publishes one estimate across all graders, so these rows are not PSA, BGS, CGC or SGC prices, and a low slabbed grade can sit below a clean raw copy. Grade 10 is estimated per grader.

SuperCatch Expert Analysis

Market Value Insight

This 1987 Topps Jim Rice card represents a standard issue from the late-80s era, positioning it in an accessible entry-level tier for collectors focused on Red Sox legends. While it lacks the premium valuation of rookie cards or high-grade variations, it serves as a foundational piece for those building themed collections of Boston Red Sox history. The presence of limited active listings suggests a tight immediate supply, which may support stable trading values despite the card's non-premium status.

Rarity Breakdown

As a base card with no noted special attributes, this item carries no inherent scarcity mechanics such as serial numbering, short prints, or parallels. Its supply is determined primarily by the original print run of the 1987 Topps set, which was extensive, making it a common find in the secondary market. Consequently, the card relies on condition and player demand rather than unique physical attributes for any potential value differentiation.

Investment Outlook

While not a rookie card, this issue captures Jim Rice during his tenure with the Boston Red Sox, leveraging nostalgia from a specific period of his career. Demand is likely driven by casual collectors and Red Sox fans seeking affordable memorabilia from the 1980s rather than serious investors seeking high appreciation. The card's value proposition remains steady, serving more as a hobby staple than a speculative asset with significant upside potential.
