Postwar Baseball - 1960s Cards

Graded NM-MT 8 by BVG. Attractive high-grade rookie example of Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan, one of the keys to the 1968 Topps set and one of the most famous of all Topps cards. This example displays brilliant colors, a crisp image, strong corners, and centering slightly toward the right. Boldly printed reverse. There is a very light wrinkle on the border over Ryan's shoulder noted for accuracy. Solid example of one of modern card collecting's great classics, which would be a worthy addition to a high-grade 1968 Topps set or Hall of Fame rookie-card collection Reserve $1,000.
