Bob Gibson

Bob Gibson was a Hall of Fame pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, renowned for his dominance in the 1960s, including two World Series championships, a 1968 season with 1.12 ERA (one of the lowest ever), nine Gold Gloves, and 1968 NL MVP/Cy Young awards[1][3].

First released in 1967 by Topps as part of their flagship baseball card series in the United States[1][3].

• Not a rookie card; Gibson's rookie was 1959 Topps #514[1]
• Features Gibson in Cardinals uniform, part of a 609-card set known for colorful design and high-number short prints[3][5]
• Iconic card from Gibson's peak dominance year, post his first World Series win[1]

Condition. Check for centering issues common in 1967 Topps, print defects on color borders, corner wear, edge chipping, and wax stains on back; high-number cards like #210 prone to miscuts[5].

Storage. Store in semi-rigid holders or top-loaders with UV-protective sleeves in cool, dry environment away from light to prevent fading on colorful design.

Authenticity. No known reprints; verify via graded population report (e.g., only 3 graded 10s), check ePID 27055888215 for originals, inspect print quality and rounded corners typical of era[1].
