Graded VG+ 3.5 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his Rookie Card appearance. Willie Mays' 1951 Bowman "high number series" debut gum card is among the most coveted pieces in the hobby, and the example presented here is a pleasing representative of its type. This Mays card is distinguished by well-focused color and nicely proportioned borders. Honest, relatively mild wear is apparent at the corners (slightly heavier at the left edge), and a small area of wrapper-wax shading can be seen on the reverse. Very Good-plus condition.
