PSA Graded Card - Certification #84643992 - Grade: NM-MT 8

This card is from the 1957 Topps Baseball set and features Whitey Herzog as a member of the Washington Senators. The card displays a close-up, color photograph of Herzog wearing sunglasses and a Senators cap against a blurred sky background, typical of the 1957 Topps design which utilized full-bleed photos with minimal borders. Player name and team are printed at the bottom in white and yellow block letters. The card is encapsulated in a PSA holder, graded Near Mint-Mint 8 (NM-MT 8). The card shows sharp corners and vibrant color for the era, with no autograph. The 1957 Topps set is notable for introducing the modern size standard for baseball cards (2-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches) and for its simple photographic design, which set it apart from previous sets’ busier layouts. This particular card distinguishes itself as part of Whitey Herzog's early playing days, before he became a legendary manager.
