Completed my 55 Topps Baseball set in PSA 5-7 with this pickup
 
Have been casually looking for a nicely centered 5 for a few years. Saw this and was able to work out a deal. I just love it!

That's what you call a strong finish.

Nice Clemente, and congrats on completing that set!

Regards,

Richard.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Someone did note that it was graded before the half point system (by the cert # I presume). I think it's worthy of a 5.5 or possibly a 6.
