Graded EX 5 by SGC. St. Louis Cardinals. One of only two examples graded at this level with none higher! Although cards from this set are found with seven different background colors, collectors have come to appreciate purple backgrounds not only for their aesthetics but for their rarity (they are thought by many to be the scarcest).
