Graded NM+ 7.5 by SGC. The featured card stands as the finest example of this card that we have ever offered at auction and we have sold many examples that have been graded NM/MT 8 by PSA. Each of the four corners easily surpass the NM/MT grade with each of the corners grading NM/MT+ to even MINT. The surface of the card presents a deep black background that is absolutely void of any print which nearly always befalls this card and is easily the most major stumbling block to a high grade of this illustrious pasteboard. The surface is awash in deep bold colors and a perfectly focused image of the Hall Of Fame legend, as well the stunning original gloss demands the enthusiasts attention as it elevates this card beyond the norm. The centering is ever so slightly a minute bit to the top which when viewing the card appears as though it most likely still fits into the NM/MT grade standards. The reverse is nearly perfectly centered with a perfectly printed palate with no staining apparent. I could not be more bullish of this regal example of this exceptionally important card. As good as it gets!
