Lot # 1075: 1953 Topps #1 Jackie Robinson PSA NM 7

Graded NM 7 by PSA. Beautiful high-grade example of condition-sensitive card #1 Jackie Robinson from the popular 1953 Topps set. This card has bright colors, a crisp image, strong corners (weaker upper left), and excellent centering. Clean reverse. Being the first card in the set, the 1953 Topps #1 Jackie Robinson card tended to be at the top of the stack, exposing it to much more wear than other cards and thus making high-grade examples far more difficult to find than most 1953 Topps cards and most other Robinson cards. The 1953 Topps is one of Jackie Robinson's most popular cards and one of the classics of all early 1950s bubble-gum cards.
