This 1961-62 Fleer Basketball #8 Wilt Chamberlain true rookie cards features beautiful color with a near-perfect image of the Hall of Famer. Corners and edges are slightly worn. Borders are very clean and surface is smooth. Print and color quality are crisp and bright. Cards from this set suffer from notoriously bad centering and crookedness in the frame. This one is outstanding in both regards. The card is centered almost dead on horizontally and 40/60 vertically. PSA has graded it VG-EX 4.5, and Mike Baker Authenticated it a Gold Diamond for its impeccable presentation. One of the hobby's top vintage basketball rookie cards.
