1957 Topps #302 Sandy Koufax PSA 8 NM-MT
KOUFAX!!! You will not get many arguments that Sandy Koufax, at peak value, was the greatest pitcher who ever lived. From 1962 through 1966, he dominated major league hitters as no other pitcher ever has, to the tune of three Cy Young awards and four no-hitters (including one perfect game!). Cardboard enthusiasts scramble to collect his most valuable cards, with one of his most popular issues being the 1957 classic Topps card presented here in a breathtaking PSA NM-MT 8 holder. Let's start with a scintillating Koufax portrait image that portrays an awe-inspiring radiance, set against a flawless background. The pinpoint corners and razor-sharp edging would be leading candidates to cut any surface, though the image is minimally shifted to the right but strong top to bottom. The verso's print registration likewise depicts spectacular quality with both surfaces virtually immaculate. Strong 8 for the advanced collector!
