Graded MINT 9 by SGC. One of only five examples graded at this level by SGC with none higher! Ultra-high-grade example of Roberto Clemente's card from the 1959 Topps set. This card has brilliant colors, exceptional gloss, sharp corners, and a clean reverse. 1959 Topps cards sometimes suffer from a variety of condition problems, including print defects, which make high-grade examples such as this particularly difficult to find. This is a world-class example of one of Clemente's most popular cards, worthy of the finest 1959 Topps set or Clemente collection.
