Lot # 1626: 1971 Topps #5 Thurman Munson PSA NM+ 7.5

Graded NM+ 7.5 by PSA. High-grade example of New York Yankees star catcher Thurman Munson from the extremely condition-sensitive 1971 Topps set. 1971 Topps cards typically suffer from a variety of condition problems, including centering issues, print quality, and especially corner and edge chipping, which make high-grade examples particularly difficult to find. This card displays outstanding image clarity, minimal chipping to the colored borders, and strong corners with light touches of wear at the tips. This is a very attractive high-grade example of one of Thurman Munson's iconic cards from one of the most condition-sensitive sets ever produced, which would be a significant addition to any 1971 Topps set or New York Yankees collection.
