1955 Topps #124, Harmon Killebrew ⭐ RC
Harmon Killebrew was widely regarded as both a great baseball player and a man of exceptional character and integrity.

Off the field, he was honest, humble, soft-spoken, and deeply respectful.
Former teammates frequently described him as “The kind of man you’d want your son to grow up to be.”
