(LOT 95)
1956 Topps #150 Duke Snider Gray Back PSA 9 MINT - Only Two PSA Examples Graded Higher!
THE DUKE!!! Fresh off the heels of Snider's inaugural 1955 championship, this PSA 9 MINT 1956 Topps offering was issued as part of an extremely prestigious 340-card set. Surpassed by only two meager PSA examples, it transcends time back to an era when the Duke of Flatbush was crushing horsehide spheres at an alarming rate. From 1953 to 1957, this Ebbets Field hero belted 40 or more homers for five consecutive seasons, tying the Babe's historic record. Tantamount with Snider's place as one of the Big Apple's finest center fielders, along with Mantle and Mays, is this pack-fresh wonder exhibiting two magnificent Snider poses. A host of sparkling baby blue hues, a gleaming obverse side surface, dazzling white borders, and a blisteringly sharp perimeter eluding any of the typical factory-issued rough edges are the momentous superlatives justifying the esteemed assessment!
