One of the truly iconic pieces in the football world, the 1957 Topps rookie card of Johnny Unitas is part of a "big three" that paces the set, along with the debut cards of fellow Hall of Famers Bart Starr and Paul Hornung. Presented for your consideration is a solid PSA 8 NM/MT example of "Johnny U's" 1957 Topps rookie card with overwhelming green and orange pigments as well as two sharply-delivered images of the football legend. The corners and edges are well within the standards for the lofty NM/MT grade with an almost imperceptible preference for the horizontal left edge. The reverse is very clean and the black printing of the statistics and bio is particularly bold. This a wonderful, high-grade example of one of Topps' most important gridiron issues.
