Graded MINT 9 by PSA. Superb ultra-high-grade example of one of the key cards from the 1956 Topps set, featuring Jackie Robinson on his final card issued as a player during his playing days. This is one of Robinson's most classic cards, featuring a crisp portrait of the Brooklyn Dodgers legend set against a background image of him sliding into the plate. The offered card is outstanding in all respects: Brilliant colors, bright white borders, four razor-sharp corners, perfect registration, and excellent centering. The gray back is entirely clean. Out of an astounding 1,133 examples of this card graded by PSA to date, only four have been graded MINT 9 with none higher. This is an exceptional MINT example that would be a highlight in any ultra high-grade collection of Jackie Robinson, Hall of Fame, or classic 1950s cards. Reserve $2,500. Estimate $5,000+.
