Comments: I picked up
a beautiful high-end '62 Topps Rookie in 1999, slabbed NM-MT by
PSA. It was mint all the way and deserved a MINT 9 rating, beautiful
card. But, I also had a '62 Topps Gaylord Perry PSA 8 card. I really
liked Brock in the 1966 Topps issue and decided to sell the rookie
for a profit and replace it with this example sometime soon thereafter.
Just like the '62 rookie, this one is also oh-so-close to a MINT
card and really deserves a higher grade. It's in pack fresh condition
with razor corners and perfect centering. A beautiful card. |
