Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his debut appearance. Among more than 2,500 copies recorded in PSA’s census reporting, just seven examples have been placed at a higher tier. This superb specimen has fully thwarted all of the 1958 Topps set's built-in condition liabilities. Centering is extraordinary for that difficult issue, and the matte-red background color on the reverse has come through with seldom-seen freshness. The likeness of the incomparable running back displays nice resolution, and its surrounding borders and corners are bright and barely touched. An important and atypically creditable piece, from an often frustrating series! Near Mint to Mint condition.
