1982 Fleer Cal Ripken Jr. #176

The shortstop who would not sit, captured at the very start

This 1982 Fleer #176 is one of Cal Ripken Jr.'s rookie-year cards, issued just before he began the consecutive-games streak that would redefine durability in baseball. Ripken spent his entire career with the Baltimore Orioles and was later elected to the Hall of Fame. As a PSA 8, this example presents as a clean, well-preserved copy with strong eye appeal and only minor flaws keeping it from the higher tiers.
