Graded GEM MINT 9.5 by BVG (Beckett). This is the ultimate high-grade example of Hall of Fame member Jerry Rice. The 1986 Topps football set is prone to many different problems, including centering issues, print quality, and especially corner and edge chipping. This card is essentially perfect in all respects. The centering is virtually perfect. All four corners are razor-sharp. The gloss is perfect and print quality is flawless. Perfectly crisp and clean, both front and back. This is a world-class ultra-high-grade rookie card of Jerry Rice, the greatest wide receiver in the history of the game, from one of the most condition-sensitive football sets ever produced. GEM MINT condition! Reserve $1,000. Estimate (open).
