Sound the trumpets, ladies and gentlemen, because here comes true hobby royalty in the form of what is without question one of the hobby's very finest examples of Ike Delock's scarce 1952 Topps high-number. Surpassed by just one lone specimen in the MINT 9 tier and matched by 21 mostly long-residing copies in its NM/MT 8 class, this new inductee into the hobby must absolutely be considered with the full understanding that PSA's contemporary grading standards are infamously more rigid than even just four or five years ago, let alone in the early years of grading. A striking MINT image and obverse counterbalance accurately opined NM/MT corners for what would seem like a legitimate recipe for consideration as the hobby's first NM/MT+ 8.5 specimen ever. Absolutely high-end!
