Willie Mays was arguably the best player to ever play the game. He was great defensively, had incredible hustle, and was a great hitter as well. He had a long, successful career at the highest level. When I was a kid, at my first national, he was signing autographs for $20 each. I didn’t have anything for him to autograph, I went to a dealer and purchased this 1961 Topps card to get signed. This, clearly, is an unsigned version. I’ll have to dig out the autographed copy that I have that I eventually sent in for PSA DNA authentication to protect the card.
