(LOT 443)
1952 Topps #261 Willie Mays PSA 3 VG

MAYS IN '52!!!... Willie Mays is one of the most significant athletes of the 20th century who stood third behind Babe Ruth and Henry Aaron for career home runs upon his retirement in 1973. Mays' 660 home runs still rank sixth all-time among Major League Baseball's home run hitters. Offered here is a 1952 Topps #261 Willie Mays graded 3 VG by PSA. This example continues to display wonderful color, nice borders and cleans surfaces though the off-center subject likely accounts for the lower assessment. Now is your opportunity to own one of the greatest players of all time, and arguably the greatest five-tool player in history, from his rookie era. The 1952 Topps set is one of the most desirably in the hobby, and save for #311 Mickey Mantle, this Mays is equally sought-after as one of the key cards in the release.

MIN BID $2,000
