Graded NM-MT 8 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his first gum card appearance. Among more than 3,000 examples recorded in PSA's census reporting, just thirteen specimens have achieved a higher, unqualified tier. From the 1957 Topps issue's scarcer "high number" series comes this first view of eventual Canton-honored greatness. The exceptional collectible capitalizes on intense orange and green background hues for its very favorable visual impact. Its corners culminate in strong points, and there are no wax traces to interfere with the presentation of the boldly inked back. An always sought-after Rookie Card of the Baltimore Colts' legendary quarterback, in Near Mint to Mint condition.
