Collector questions

What exact card is this?

The card is 1987 Topps Baseball #105, Floyd Youmans, the Topps flagship base (non-glossy U.S. printing) featuring the Montreal Expos.

How do you know it's the base Topps printing and not a Tiffany or other parallel?

Observed front and back match the 1987 Topps flagship base: uncoated gray/brown back stock, matte non-glossy front, wood-grain border, blue bottom nameplate, English-only text and the line '© 1987 TOPPS CHEWING GUM, INC. • PRTD. IN U.S.A.' The card lacks the glossy front and bright white stock characteristic of the 1987 Topps Tiffany factory set and shows no serial number, autograph, foil or other premium treatments.

What visible design elements and text appear on the front?

Front shows a portrait of Floyd Youmans in Montreal Expos uniform, the Expos logo overlapping the upper-left of the image, FLOYD YOUMANS in white block letters on a blue nameplate at the bottom, the Topps logo at lower left, and a cream wood-grain border with black framing.

What information is printed on the back of the card?

Back includes a blue header with a yellow arrow-shaped number panel '105' and the title 'FLOYD YOUMANS • PITCHER', a central yellow panel with a complete major and minor league pitching record through 1986, a blue biography and 'ON THIS DATE' feature, small copyright text '© 1987 TOPPS CHEWING GUM, INC. • PRTD. IN U.S.A.' and a yellow-and-blue biographical strip ending with a blue Topps logo.
