1951 Bowman #2 Otto Graham PSA 9 MINT
The immortal Otto Graham will forever reside as a bona fide Hall of Famer, with his 10-year performance earning him kudos as one of Pro-Football's most dominate players of his era. From 1946 thru 1955 with the Cleveland Browns, the accurate passing QB won an astonishing seven championships (four AAFC & three NFL), claimed five MVP Awards, led the league multiple times in passing yards, rating and TD passes, was selected to the NFL's 100th Anniversary All-Time team and is also a member of the Collegiate HOF! His name always comes up with regard to football's finest leadership qualities, and likewise, this breathtaking PSA 9 Mint 1950 Bowman #2 Otto Graham offering suffices as one of the gridiron's premier cardboard keepsakes. Its hallowed assessment places it alongside a meager three other examples as the finest of its kind, with NONE of the approximate 440 PSA encapsulated copies achieving a "10" assessment.

Graham's iconic image depicts his legendary #60 jersey, with the crystal clear clarity and brilliant background hues virtually unimprovable. Even more significant is the atypical near-perfect centering between four blinding white borders, with a seemingly countless number of 1951 Bowman subjects revealing skewed images. Both surfaces have retained their original factory issued quality, and the four corners exhibit blistering sharp tips. For full disclosure, the only diminutive imperfection we can see is an extremely faint area of toning, microscopic in size, that is situated near the upper right corner. Barely noticeable to the naked eye, it is the only blemish we can detect, and rendered virtually irrelevant versus the remaining pack-fresh attributes. One of the finest eye pleasing Otto Graham cards extant, it shares the spotlight with a mere three other PSA 9 Mint examples as the pinnacle PSA specimen, synonymous with Graham's esteemed skill sets that truly stand alongside the NFL's greatest heroes!
