Graded GEM MINT 10 by PSA. One of only two examples graded at this lofty level! Tremendous ultra high-grade example of Hank Aaron from the 1971 Topps Super set. Because of their high-quality production values and scarcity relative to other Topps sets of the era, it is a little surprising that this issue has not received more attention from collectors. This is primarily because for many years grading companies did not have holders for this large-format issue. This example boasts vibrant colors, a crisp image, and virtually no scuffing or chipping. As a point of reference, a PSA GEM MINT 10 example of Clemente from this set just recently appeared in a February 2022 public auction, where it realized a final sale price of $92,308. An outstanding card featuring the legendary Hank Aaron. Opening Bid $10.
