Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his "Rookie Card" appearance. Among a total of more than 3,000 copies recorded in PSA’s census reporting, fewer than four percent have attained a higher, unqualified tier. Collector awareness of Jim Palmer's road to greatness began with this much-coveted Topps portrayal; the path was to culminate in a total of 286 victories, a 2.86 career ERA and three Cy Young Awards – plus a first-ballot selection to Cooperstown. The four sharp corners, perfect color and impeccable clarity in this example of Palmer's debut gum card afford the item a superior status befitting its subject. Near Mint to Mint condition.
