1958 Topps #5 Willie Mays PSA 8 NM-MT
STRONG MAYS!!! Mays' career statistics and his longevity in the pre-performance-enhancing drugs era have drawn speculation that he may be the finest five-tool player ever, and many surveys and expert analyses, which have examined Mays' relative performance, have led to a growing opinion that Mays was possibly the greatest all-around offensive baseball player of all time. Offered here is a Mays classic for the best of collections. Issued in 1958, this 61 year old card is bold and beautiful and tough to get in PSA 8 grade due to the availability of the paper Topps used in 1958. Clean example with sharp corners and a pack fresh appearance. Grab this Mays card for your collection.
