Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his Rookie Card appearance. Among more than 1,700 copies recorded in PSA's census reporting, only eight examples (less than one-half of one percent of the total population) have achieved a higher, unqualified tier. Presented here is a superb specimen of the short-printed card that constitutes one of the football collecting specialty's greatest challenges. The Namath rookie is deservedly regarded as a formidable obstacle for those pursuing a 1965 set, and it's a condition scarcity to enthusiasts who insist on the highest standard of appearance. Simply, the difficulty in trying to properly satisfy this important spot in a collection can seem almost insurmountable. The offered Namath debut collectible boasts impeccable depth in its background color, outstanding registration for the 1965 "SP" category, and a distinctive absence of the production's usual print imperfections and overspray. Immensely pleasing Near Mint to Mint condition.
