1962 Topps #1 Roger Maris PSA 8 NM-MT
61 in '61!!! For obvious reasons, Roger Maris holds Topps' #1 slot for the 1962 set. Roger Maris shook up the baseball world when he bashed 61 home runs in 1961, surpassing the record set by fellow Yankee Babe Ruth in 1927. As the new holder of the single-season home run record, who else deserves card #1 for Topps 1962 issue than the Yankees right fielder? The two-time MVP is offered here on his brown-bordered #1 card in an 8 NM-MT holder from PSA. Nice centering with strong edges and registration make this one for a top collection. With only seven superiors to this example, this phenomenal example elevates any collection or set from the beloved 1962 Topps issue. Don't miss out on Maris at the pinnacle of his career, and in a PSA 8 no less.
