1967 Topps #400 Roberto Clemente PSA 9 MINT
ARRIBA!!! Roberto Clemente was worshiped by the Hispanic community, similar to Jackie Robinson's respect among African Americans. Roberto's career accomplishments include a .317 lifetime batting average, 3,000 hits, the 1966 NL MVP award, four batting titles, and 12 consecutive Gold Glove awards, not to mention two World Series. This sensational PSA 9 MINT 1967 Topps #400 Roberto Clemente pack-fresh offering has been bested by a meager two PSA GEM MINT 10 specimens, along with only 2.25% of the non-qualifier PSA examples earning a 9 MINT assessment. This magnificent offering displays a near-impossible well-centered Clemente portrait image, sparkling hues including the popular purple "PIRATES" team text, blinding-white borders, razor-sharp corner tips and flawless surfaces. Presenting every attribute expected, this seldom-surfacing 1967 Topps Clemente keepsake is the one for you and sure to upgrade even the finest of collections considering the paltry two issues graded higher!
