Sold For: $960,000

Auction: 2023 Spring
Lot #: 6
Auction: Postwar Baseball - 1950s Cards
Graded MINT 9 by PSA. Presented is a stunning, ultra-high-grade rookie card of Hall of Famer Roberto Clemente, one of the keys to the 1955 Topps set and one of the most famous of all Topps cards. Only one example grades higher out of 6,464 cards evaluated by PSA to date. This card is extraordinary in every way, with a flawless image, brilliant colors, sharp corners, and near-perfect centering, which is so often a serious problem for Clemente rookies. Clean reverse. The market for ultra-high-grade 1955 Topps #164 Clemente rookies has soared to new levels, with a sale late last year of $1.05 million reported for a PSA MINT 9 example. This is the finest example we have ever offered! This is a spectacular example of this key rookie card, which would make an outstanding addition to any 1955 Topps, Hall of Fame rookie card, or Roberto Clemente collection. Opening Bid $250,000.
