Beautiful full-color example of "Hammerin" Hank" Aaron the all-time home run king nearly ten years before breaking the record held by the immortal Babe Ruth. Issued in packages of Kahn"s hot dogs the 1965 set was a 45-card set that featured full-color images of players from the Braves Pirates Indians and Reds. Kahn"s Wieners cards are much more scarce than their mainstream gum-card counterparts due to their lower production and regional distribution.Graded EX/NM 80 by SGC this card of Aaron is a vivid color photo of Aaron smiling at the camera while gripping his bat. The card"s four corners are lightly touched each with small specks of white showing through as a result. The impact of these corner touches is what reduces the card"s numerical grade as the rest of the card is magnificent with strong color and image quality sharp edges and a very clean reverse.An outstanding regional issue this card of Hall of Famer Hank Aaron is one of his more scarce 1960s issues.Population DataSGC Population: 12 total graded 4 at this level 5 higherPSA Population: 54 total graded 7 at this level 35 higher
