Bob Cousy's contributions during the greatest Championship run in NBA history are sometimes overlooked due to the greatness of his teammate Bill Russell. The Boston faithful hardly forget the Hall of Famers' place on Red Auerbach's squad and don't let casual fans minimize Cousy's play. The point guard put up superstar performances night in and night out, averaging nearly 20 points per game and ended his thirteen year career with almost 17,000 points. The Celtics would eventually hang his number "14" jersey in the Boston Garden rafters, never to be worn by another Celtic again.
Offered here is an eye-popping example of Cousy's 1961 Fleer basketball trading card in an undeniable PSA MINT 9. Everything about this one is outstanding, including the bright and clear color and exceptionally clear picture of the legendary point guard. White edges are accentuated by the eye-catching green and orange pigment. One of thirty in MINT with only three rated higher.
