Graded VG/EX 4 by SGC. Outstanding mid-grade example of Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Famer Roberto Clemente's rookie card. One of card collecting's classics, Clemente's rookie card is the key to the 1955 Topps set and one of the most popular of all postwar baseball cards. This card has bold colors, a crisp image, and light corner wear. The reverse is lightly toned with boldly printed text. A light crease on the upper-right quadrant, near the Pirates logo, factors into the assigned grade.
