Best-In-Class Expert Analysis/Summary:
Like many other cards in the 1955 Topps set, the Roberto Clemente rookie is often plagued by two key condition obstacles: subpar centering and varying degrees of print defects. Here, in addition to the Clemente card being exceptionally well balanced in both directions without any noticeable tilt, the print quality throughout is stellar. The virtually perfect centering and minimal print imperfections allow for the colorful background to act as a superb setting for the portrait of the Pittsburgh icon. On this card, nothing negative encroaches on the face of the franchise. Even within its elite grade category, the card is a standout when it comes to overall eye appeal.
