With just six examples on the PSA population report, signed 1952 Topps cards of Willard Ransdell are extremely challenging to find.  Ransdell passed in 1969 at just 53 years old.  Consigned from an extremely advanced collection, this blue ballpoint signature does exhibit some skipping of the ink, though the eye appeal remains strong since Ransdell applied the signature carefully in an area where it would remain legible.  Authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA.
