1961 Topps #35 Ron Santo All Star Rookie PSA 10 GEM MINT - Highest PSA Example!
PERFECT 10 ROOKIE!!! When Ron Santo was enshrined in Cooperstown in 2012, one could argue the Veterans Committee never made a wiser decision. Santo's incredible resume includes five consecutive gold glove awards, four seasons of batting over .300, and hitting 30 or more round trippers each, and an all-time 3rd baseman record of driving in 90 or more runs for eight consecutive seasons. A nine-time All-Star, Santo joins Mike Schmidt and Eddie Mathews as the only two third basemen to clout over 300 home runs, with Santo playing his entire 15-year career in the Windy City (14 years with the Cubs and his final season with the White Sox).

No wonder sophisticated PSA Set Registry collectors actively pursue his inaugural 1961 Topps card, which just happens to be presented here in a breathtaking PSA GEM MINT 10 holder! Indeed, only 0.4% of the 3,700+ PSA encapsulated copies have managed to achieve the hallowed 10 assessment, with this card's sparkling aesthetics including crystal-clear clarity, razor-sharp corner tips, virtually spot-on 50/50 centering, blinding white borders, and crisp surfaces. A must-have for any world-class rookie card or 1961 Topps compilation, this supreme offering is a truly quintessential pristine marvel!
