The field general for Cincinnati's mighty Big Red Machine appears in rare form on this blazing card that stands as one of only ten GEM MINT 10 examples graded by PSA to date. All of the condition obstacle normally associated with the 1968 Topps issue are conquered by this unbelievably fresh jewel of a card. The surfaces are 100% pristine. The image is of the highest quality and is absolutely free of any defects. Magnification of the corners reveals no wear whatsoever and earns this card every bit of its GEM MINT grade. This magnificent trophy card is a fitting homage to the man most consider baseball's best catcher of all-time.
