The Story
PSA Graded Card - Certification #74832119 - Grade: FR 1.5
This is the iconic 1955 Topps Sandy Koufax rookie card (#123), one of the most famous and sought-after vintage baseball cards. The card has a horizontal layout, featuring a colorized portrait of Sandy Koufax on the right and a full-body, action-style illustration of him on the left. The background is primarily yellow, with a red diamond in the upper left displaying the Brooklyn Dodgers logo. Koufax's name is in yellow font against a green border on the lower right, with his nickname 'Sandy' in quotation marks. A facsimile signature appears across the card. The card displayed is PSA graded 'FR 1.5,' indicating significant wear, visible creasing, rounded corners, and surface scratching, but no major loss of image. The vintage Topps card stock and printing give it a slightly textured matte finish, typical of mid-1950s cards. This card is celebrated for being Koufax's rookie, and distinguishes itself with its dual-image horizontal design, bright colors, and rookie-year status.
