1958 Topps #30 Hank Aaron "Yellow Name" PSA 8 NM-MT
YELLOW NAME VARIATION!!! This 1958 Topps "Yellow Name" Henry Aaron is the variation card most 58 collectors are looking for. While there is not a single PSA Gem Mint 10 example for either the "White" or "Yellow" named 1958 Aaron #30 subject, from a population report perspective, this one looks better than the offered grade. Coming off his 1957 MVP season, Aaron would continue his slugging ways by walloping 30 home runs and posting an exceptional .326 average; leading the Braves back to the Fall Classic against the Bronx Bombers in a devastating 7-game loss. This classic 1958 Topps prize portrays a formidable "Hammerin' Hank" portrait pose, encompassed by a bold green setting. Brilliant surfaces, four scintillating corner tips and a pristine reverse side complete this 63-year old memento that appears as if it has just been pulled from a 1958 wax pack. A "blazer" to say the least.
