As one of the most important cards produced during the post-war era, the demand for Hank Aaron rookie cards, regardless of grade, has experienced an unyielding increase over the last two years. Not too long ago, a NM/MT example of Aaron's debut card was still within reach of most collectors, but the current bull market has forced collectors to rethink their strategy. The presented specimen should provide the winning bidder with tremendous satisfaction, a very impressive NM example that offers a fresh, bright image of Aaron, supported by a bold orange backdrop that reveals just scant traces of stray print. The centering obviously favors the left side but the above-grade endpoints and well-represented reverse provide a more than adequate counterbalance. If you've already had to scale back your expectations due to record prices realized on high grade examples, get in on this one before you have to drop any further.
