1956 Topps #110 Yogi Berra Gray Back PSA 9 MINT
MINT YOGI!!!... Issued by the renowned Topps Chewing Gum Co. some 68 years ago, this pack-fresh 1956 Topps #110 Yogi Berra has been bested by only a sole PSA specimen! The 1956 campaign would see Berra once again lead the Yankees to a world championship, with the immortal Big Apple backstop ultimately claiming a record 13 titles. A three-time MVP winner and member of 18 All-Star squads, Berra was one of the premier clutch-hitters in baseball history, and his representation on this world-class memento likewise boasts championship caliber.
Stealing the show is the near-perfect positioning of the immaculate image, with the breathtaking array of green, blue and brown hues still retaining virtually all of their original factory-issued luster. Sharp right-angled corners, a gleaming obverse-side surface and a super clean verso are the final compliments for this highly coveted gem that has stubbornly defied father time!
