Q: Are Upper Deck Canvas cards prone to chipping or corner wear?
A: Because of the fibrous nature of the textured canvas stock, the edges and corners can sometimes show minor white fraying straight out of the pack compared to high-gloss cards. Safe handling and immediate storage in a penny sleeve and rigid top loader are highly recommended to preserve its condition.
