1988 Daily Star Soccer 88 #131 Paul Gascoigne PSA 5
This Paul Gascoigne card is number 131 from the 1988 Daily Star Soccer 88 collection. The card has been graded PSA 5 Excellent.
The card was issued during Gascoigne’s final season at Newcastle United. He had signed schoolboy terms with his hometown club in 1980 and was already attracting attention from England’s top clubs. He won the PFA Young Player of the Year award in 1988 before joining Tottenham Hotspur that summer for £2.2 million.
This is an early career card, issued before the 1990 World Cup that would make Gascoigne a global star and trigger “Gazzamania” across Britain.
Born in Gateshead on 27 May 1967, Gascoigne won 57 England caps and scored 10 goals. He was named BBC Sports Personality of the Year in 1990 and finished fourth in the Ballon d’Or the same year. The National Football Museum describes him as the most naturally talented English footballer of his generation.
