Graded MINT 96 by SGC. Highest-graded example! One of only five examples graded at this level by SGC, with none graded higher. Extraordinary ultra high-grade example of one of the key cards from the 1956 Topps set, featuring Jackie Robinson on his final card issued as a player during his playing days.

The portrait of Jackie in the foreground practically jumps off the card. Pack-fresh, crisp, ultra high-grade example of one of Robinson"™s most classic cards, worthy of the finest collection. This card is a gem! Reserve $500. Estimate $1,000/$1,500+. SOLD FOR $2,115
