(LOT 96)
1956 Topps #164 Harmon Killebrew Gray Back PSA 9 MINT - Only One PSA Example Graded Higher!
MINT KILLER!!! PSA has encapsulated some 3,300 Harmon Killebrew 1956 Topps Gray Backs, with only a single example besting this PSA 9 pack-fresh offering! Author of 573 lifetime home runs, Killebrew's 1956 Topps card exhibits the same illustration utilized on his hallowed '55 Topps Rookie, with this particular offering revealing near-perfect 50/50 centering. Both the portrait and fielding poses boast sparkling colors, with the super-clean borders, impeccable surfaces, and vivid resolution substantiating the lofty assessment. The only imperfection we can see is a somewhat rough upper-edge factory-issued cut, a common characteristic of many 1956 Topps subjects. Nicknamed "The Killer" due to the manner in which he consistently crushed baseballs, Harmon led the Junior Circuit in homers six seasons during his 22-year Hall of Fame career, with this 9 MINT marvel a grand testament to his enduring legacy!
