Juan Samuel Autographed 1987 Topps Tiffany #255 Philadelphia Phillies Card

Own an autographed 1987 Topps Tiffany #255 baseball card personally signed by Juan Samuel, featuring the dynamic second baseman with the Philadelphia Phillies. This premium Tiffany version of Samuel's regular 1987 Topps card combines the iconic woodgrain-style design with upgraded production quality and significantly greater scarcity than the standard flagship issue.

The 1987 Topps Tiffany set parallels the complete 792-card 1987 Topps checklist and was issued exclusively as a premium factory set in much smaller quantities than the standard release. Tiffany cards are distinguished by their high-gloss fronts, bright white card stock, and enhanced printing quality. The premium treatment is particularly striking with the distinctive woodgrain-style borders that make 1987 Topps one of the most recognizable sets of the decade. Card #255 features Juan Samuel with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Samuel established himself as one of baseball's most exciting players after becoming Philadelphia's regular second baseman in 1984. During his first full Major League season, he batted .272 with 15 home runs, 69 RBIs, 19 triples, and 72 stolen bases. His 72 steals established a Phillies single-season record at the time, while his 19 triples led the National League. Samuel earned his first MLB All-Star selection and finished second in National League Rookie of the Year voting.

The 1987 season became one of Samuel's finest. He batted .272 with career highs of 28 home runs and 100 RBIs, while adding 15 triples and 35 stolen bases. His exceptional combination of power, speed, and extra-base ability earned him his second National League All-Star selection and made him one of the league's most productive middle infielders.

A three-time MLB All-Star, Samuel enjoyed a 16-year Major League career and finished with 1,578 hits, 161 home runs, 396 stolen bases, and 102 triples. He later returned to the Phillies organization as a coach, extending his association with Philadelphia well beyond his playing career.

Personally signed by Juan Samuel, this 1987 Topps Tiffany #255 combines one of the decade's most recognizable Topps designs, the scarcity and premium finish of the Tiffany release, and the autograph of one of the Phillies' most dynamic players of the era.
