(LOT 1363)
1950 Bowman #5 Y.A. Tittle Rookie PSA 8 NM-MT

PACK-FRESH TITTLE!!!... One of Pro-Football's greatest all-time quarterbacks was the legendary signal-caller Y.A. Tittle who compiled a sensational 17-year Hall of Fame career with the Colts, Forty-Niners and Giants. His extensive list of accolades includes a 1963 MVP award, seven Pro-Bowl appearances, three times leading the league in touchdown passes, and being one of only eight quarterbacks who threw an NFL record seven TDs in a single game. Synonymous with these world class achievements comes along this outstanding PSA 8 NM-MT 1950 Bowman #5 Y.A. Tittle rookie card that has only been bested by a meager five examples! This grand offering was issued only two years after Tittle started his professional grid-iron career with the Baltimore Colts. Similar to Tittle's outstanding achievements, the card emanates a sparkling array of attributes, starting with a captivating image portraying the Canton, Ohio inductee in a "passing a football" pose. Donning his classic green hued #63 jersey, the spellbinding image is the major highlight, revealing no obtrusive blemishes over the past 73 years. The only notable flaws include an image that modestly favors the upper edge and some negligible toning along the white borders. The bona fide Y.A. Tittle rookie card, it has only been surpassed by a mere five PSA copies, and as most hobbyists would attest to, this PSA 8 representation of an immortal Hall of Famer merits a final resting place in any esteemed PSA Registered compilation!
