(LOT 225)
1955 Bowman #184 Willie Mays PSA 8 NM-MT

THE SAY HEY KID!!! The 1955 Bowman Mays subject would mark his final Bowman card, yet fortunately for collectors, Bowman chose a classic "hands on knees" pose with the Say Hey Kid depicting one of his boyish smiles. Presented here is a spectacular PSA 8 example that has been bested by a meager eight copies! It's no secret that 1955 Bowman cards are extremely condition sensitive due to their ultra-susceptible wood-grain borders, justifying why PSA 8 specimens seldom surface for the taking. The breathtaking aesthetics of this pack-fresh include crystal clear clarity, atypical clean wood-grain borders, right-angled corners, relatively fine centering (modestly favoring the left edge), and clean surfaces. Indeed, due to its well-documented condition sensitivity, even the most sophisticated enthusiasts would consider it a distinguished honor to make this PSA 8 Willie Mays gem their own!
