Its taken me a LONG time to find one of these in this condition. Although it isn't the label color I want (blue) it is a high grade example of a VERY tough card. Back in 1986, McDonald's did a special promotion in the Bay Area. You received a free card with an extra value meal or sandwich. There were many cards in this 49ers set which included Montana and a Jerry Rice rookie. There were 4 different colored labels for the month. First week highlighted blue labels, 2nd week was black, 3rd week was gold/orange, and 4th week was green (most common). You would scratch off the lottery style ticket at the bottom for prizes like free Big Macs or fries. Many have the bottom portion missing (hence the blue labels being the rarest) and they were notoriously off cut with poor centering. Only a handful of PSA/BGS 9s exist across all label colors. I don't keep many cards but this is one that will stay in my collection forever.
