(LOT 1084)
1955 Topps #47 Hank Aaron PSA 8 NM-MT

2ND-YEAR AARON!!! The 1955 season would see the Milwaukee Braves sophomore sensation Henry Aaron have his breakout campaign, with Hammerin' Hank belting 27 round-trippers, knocking in 107 runs and posting a stellar .314 batting average. Topps celebrated Aaron's second season by including him on their #47 subject, with this PSA 8 NM-MT '55 Topps marvel still portraying an abundance of its original attributes. Pack-fresh, to say the least, its four sharp corners and classic Aaron portrait and batting images steal the show, with the illustration modestly favoring the lower right edges. Radiant surfaces are the final superlatives for one of Hank's most popular cards, with Aaron's 755 lifetime homers and still-standing records of 2,297 RBIs and 6,856 total bases justifying his iconic stature. One of baseball's greatest right-handed hitters, this 68-year-old heirloom turns back the clock to an era when Aaron was embarking on a career for the ages!
