1961 Topps #150 Willie Mays PSA 9 MINT - Only One PSA Example Graded Higher!

MINT SAY HEY KID!!! PSA has currently encapsulated some 6,000 '61 Topps Willie Mays #150 subjects, with this PSA 9 MINT offering only bested by a single PSA 10 example! Indeed, this museum-worthy gem's pack-fresh aesthetics are more than worthy of the highest hobby accolades. The 1961 campaign would see Willie Mays belt 40 round-trippers, the start of an incredible five-year run where he would wallop 226 home runs for an average of over 45 per season. Most would agree that the Say Hey Kid was baseball's finest five-tool player, with his unparalleled skill sets placing him as one of baseball's greatest all-time players. Likewise, the magnificent eye appeal of this spine-tingling marvel boasts cardboard superiority, with the classic Mays portrait image revealing fine resolution and a sparkling array of robust hues. Immaculate surfaces and razor-sharp corners are additional superlatives supporting the hallowed assessment, and the only notable imperfection is a somewhat off-positioned image modestly favoring the left edge between four blinding white borders. Synonymous with Mays' unequivocal legacy, this best of the best keepsake merits a final resting place in any esteemed 1961 Topps PSA Set Registry gathering!
