About this card

Roger Staubach’s 1972 Topps Football card is number 200 in that release. This is a vintage Topps issue. Topps sold its cards in wax packs, usually with a slab of gum, and cut them from large printed sheets, so centering and edges vary from copy to copy.

The catalog labels this a rookie card, based on the source cited below.

How to identify it

Centering, corner wear, stains and print marks are the first things to check on a card this old. Famous cards from the era have been reprinted, so compare the card stock, printing and size with a known original.

Raw / ungraded

Match the issue
Match the full year or season, release, number and named edition to this reference. Ask for readable images of the actual item’s front and back.
Record visible condition
Inspect corners, edges, centering and surface in suitable photographs or in person. Record damage or unanswered questions without assigning a predicted professional grade.
Keep authentication separate
Ungraded does not establish authenticity or mean “never authenticated.” A protective case alone does not establish a professional condition grade.

Professionally graded

Read the complete label
Record the grading company, exact issue, card grade and any qualifiers or designation. Keep an autograph grade separate from the card’s condition grade. An authentication-only designation may have no numeric condition grade.
Compare the certification record
Use the company’s official lookup and compare its issue details and available images with the actual item, label and holder. A matching certification number alone does not establish that an offered item is genuine.
Compare within the stated scale
Retain the company’s exact grade name and number. Different companies and grade designations are not automatically equivalent; a numeric label does not establish a current price.

A source-linked reference or historical scan does not authenticate the card you are considering. CardRoster supplies no assigned grade, certification or price for it.
