Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his Rookie Card appearance. Among more than 2,600 copies recorded in PSA’s census reporting, just nine examples have been graded higher. This superb example 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 Canton-enshrined running back displays nice resolution, and its surrounding borders and corners are bright and barely touched. An important and aesthetically satisfying piece, in Near Mint to Mint condition.
