Graded by EX-MT 6 by BVG. The Lew Alcindor rookie card is one of a handful of basketball cards to be included in the highest tier of desired cards. In a basketball set known for being notoriously off-centered, this beauty is nicely centered with clean white edges with bright blue found in the oval inlay. The reverse has clean surfaces and a perfect print strike. This is the highlight card from the first Topps basketball set since 1957 and could be the highlight of your 1969 Topps set or rookie card collection.
