"Unique for the Grade" 1958 Topps #366 Gene Green PSA 10 GEM MINT - "POP 1"; The SOLE Highest Graded Example!
Outfielder Gene Green played seven MLB seasons, with his first three years spent with the St. Louis Cardinals and commencing in 1957. His inaugural card is his 1958 Topps #366 subject, presented here in an absolutely miraculous PSA 10 GEM MINT holder. The sole copy at this hallowed plateau, it just happens to stand as the undisputed "best of the rest" on the illustrious PSA "Pop" Chart, besting some 240 inferior specimens!
While certainly not a future Cooperstown Inductee, this PSA 10 "POP 1" rookie card ensures his legacy, highlighted by a breathtaking portrait pose that is extremely well projected via the impeccable bold green backdrop. Green's richly hued image reveals near-perfect centering between four blinding white borders, and we cannot detect a single flaw with the naked eye. Fine edging, pinpoint corners and pristine surfaces all combine to further substantiate the "one of a kind" assessment that places it alone at the top of the PSA population report, and a bona fide keepsake for the most advanced PSA Registry collector!
