$250.00USD
PSA Graded Card - Certification #87891347 - Grade: VG 3
This iconic card features Hall of Famer Willie Mays from the 1957 Topps Baseball set. The front has a color photograph of Mays in his New York Giants uniform, shown in a batting stance. The card design is classic, with minimal borders, natural stadium background, and player details at the bottom in a combination of yellow, white, and orange text. 'WILLIE MAYS' and 'NEW YORK GIANTS OUTFIELD' are displayed at the bottom. Card shows mild to moderate wear consistent with a PSA grade of VG (Very Good) 3, which can include rounded corners, minor creases, surface wear, and some print defects. The 1957 Topps set is notable for its first-ever use of standard modern-size cards (2-1/2'' by 3-1/2'') and full-color photography. Historical context: Willie Mays is considered one of baseball's all-time greats and a member of the 500 Home Run Club. The '57 Topps set is revered for its clean, photographic design and strong rookie and star checklist. No special printing technology (like refractors or holography) is present—this is a vintage printed card. Unique to the era, the card’s no-frills, portrait-style photo and vibrant, block-letter text distinguish it from later, flashier designs.
