Like the 1957 Topps (Russell) and 1961 Fleer (Chamberlain) sets before it, the 1969-70 Topps "tall-boy" basketball set had a game-changing rookie card in Lew Alcindor, the future Kareen Abdul-Jabbar. The featured card is graded SGC 60 EX 5 but appears stronger as the corners are a little above grade and the centering, usually the biggest setback, is admirably accurate. It would be tough to find a better cand than this at the assessed grade.
