Postwar Baseball - 1950s Cards

Graded NM 7 by PSA. Very attractive high-grade example of Roberto Clemente's rare "yellow name" variation card from the classic 1958 Topps set. This example displays stellar colors, a particularly bright, bold yellow background, four sharp corners, and centering slightly toward the bottom. 1958 Topps cards typically suffer from a variety of condition problems, including print defects and a tendency to have soft corners, which make high-grade examples such as this particularly difficult to find. This is a beautiful example of one of the key rarities of the 1950s, worthy of the finest 1958 Topps set. Reserve $300.
