1957-1958 Topps Basketball #77 Bill Russell rookie card flawlessly signed by Russell in blue Sharpie on the front. Beckett has encapsulated the card and graded the signature GEM MINT 10. The card displays light creasing and both edge and corner wear, none of which significantly detract from its overall visual appeal. Russell's 1957 Topps rookie card is not only his most popular card, but one of the most iconic sports cards ever issued. Not surprisingly, signed examples are scarce and seldom seen at auction. This is the just the second signed Russell rookie card we have ever offered and one that would be a prize addition to any advanced basketball card or autograph collection.
