Graded GOOD 2 by PSA. Attractive rookie card of New York Giants Hall of Famer Willie Mays, one of the most important and famous of all 1950s bubble-gum cards. In addition to being one of the two key cards of the 1951 Bowman set, Mays is part of the scarce high-number series of the set (#253-324). This well-centered card has vibrant colors, a strong image, and honest corner wear. Clean reverse. The 1951 Bowman Willie Mays rookie has always been a card-collecting icon, especially among postwar cards. This is a solid example of the 1951 Bowman Willie Mays rookie.
