(LOT 151)
1966 Topps #1 Willie Mays PSA 9 MINT

TOUGH #1 MAYS!!! This spectacular PSA Mint 9 Mays offering, while now celebrating its 53rd-birthday, miraculously shares the distinction of being the finest of its kind since PSA has NEVER encapsulated a Gem Mint 10 specimen! The Mays image projects extremely high-level definition, with its unparalleled clarity providing an almost "3-D" like depth perception. Set between four angelic white borders, the richly hued illustration depicts atypical near-perfect centering, with a myriad of 1966 subjects plagued by off-centered tilted images. Additional highlights include immaculate surfaces, vivid print registration and blistering sharp corner tips.

MIN BID $1,250
