Graded MINT 9 by PSA. Of the nearly 4000 examples of this card that have been graded by PSA, there has yet to be a single PSA 10 GEM MINT example in fact the offered example boasts as being part of less than 1% of all graded examples that have been graded MINT 9 by PSA! "If somebody came up and hit .450, stole 100 bases, and performed a miracle in the field every day, I'd still look you right in the eye and tell you that Willie was better. He could do the five things you have to do to be a superstar: hit, hit with power, run, throw and field. And he had the other magic ingredient that turns a superstar into a super Superstar. Charisma. He lit up a room when he came in. He was a joy to be around." — Leo Durocher. Amazingly well-centered, this lustrous copy of the "Say Hey Kid" is beaming with deeply-saturated color and snow-white borders that throw a spotlight on those mildly rough cut edges. Each corner holds up well to the MINT assessment with two corners vying for GEM MINT honors. An incredible elite specimen for the elite collector!
