1973 Topps #100 Hank Aaron (PSA Mint 9)
At the start of the 1973 campaign, Braves superstar Henry Aaron was only 41 home runs shy of tying the immortal Babe Ruth's exalted 714 mark. Hammerin' Hank would not disappoint, clouting 40 round-trippers and ending the season a sole homer short of the 'Sultan of Swat's" iconic record. As a celebration of Aaron's relentless march towards baseball immortality, this remarkable 1973 Topps card has achieved the hallowed PSA "Mint 9" assessment, only bested by a meager 4 examples! In the past few years, it is no secret that hobbyists are "jumping aboard" the Aaron bandwagon and seizing his prized high grade cardboard artifacts before they reach a stratospheric level.

Hank Aaron's lifetime achievements are nothing short of incredible, and likewise, his representation on this "scarce for the grade" marvel is simply magnificent! Aaron's classic fielding pose as he battles the sun with his sunglasses offers bright crisp hues, pinpoint corners, flawless surfaces, and atypical perfect centering between four snow white borders. Like Aaron's quintessential batting swing, this card offers virtual perfection, and we now offer you a grand opportunity to emulate "Hammerin Hank" and hit a home run of your own by capturing this magnificent museum worthy masterpiece!
