Description: 1968 Mira Tuttosport I Campionissimi #605 Rod Laver Rookie Card PSA 6 Pop 1 Highest Graded A card as legendary and mythical as the subject it depicts, here is the finest known example of the never-seen rookie card of tennis legend Rod Laver. The single highest graded example from a miniscule population of just 4 unqualified copies on record at PSA. With 198 single titles, Laver is the winningest player in tennis history. He completed the Grand Slam twice in his career and remains the only man to have done so in the Open Era. The most famous hardcourt arena in the world is named in his honor, the Rod Laver Arena at Melbourne Park in Australia. For those unfamiliar with the 1968 Mira set, there are several world famous athletes such as Cassius Clay, Arnold Palmer, and Mario Andretti, for whom, like Laver, only a small single-digit handful of copies are known to exist. This is arguably the single most significant vintage tennis rookie card in the hobby, and I have set the price accordingly. Thanks for reading. Free shipping, as always.
