1960 Topps #326 Roberto Clemente PSA 9 MINT - Highest PSA Example!
HIGHEST GRADED CLEMENTE!!! Presented here is another dead-centered 1960 Topps card from this amazing 1960s HOF collection, in this case the #326 Roberto Clemente subject residing in a spectacular PSA 9 MINT holder. Currently, over 7,000 Clemente '60 Topps examples are listed on the PSA Pop Chart, with not a single specimen boasting a PSA 10 GEM MINT assessment! By 1960, Roberto Clemente had established himself as one of baseball's premier ballplayers, with the line-drive hitter posting an outstanding .314 batting average while belting 16 round-trippers and knocking in 96 runs. This would be the first of eight consecutive seasons that Roberto would eclipse the .300 mark, with Clemente also notching his inaugural All-Star game appearance (the first of 15 All-Star nominations). His sparkling batting poses (colored and black & white), combine to highlight the breathtaking aesthetics, with their vibrant hues, crystal-clear clarity, and the aforementioned textbook positioning bursting with unparalleled eye appeal. Pack-fresh surfaces, blisteringly sharp corner tips, an imposing Pirates team logo, and vibrant orange and blue background settings are the final thumbs-up substantiating the pinnacle grade for one of Roberto's finest preserved cards on the planet!
