When the GAI company was first established, it was staffed by reputable people with a clear objective to become a market-leading grading company.  Their first few years seemed very successful, and they began with a few clever novelties that wound up being assets - notably their identifying the first card they graded at each grade level as "First Graded" on the grading label.  What seemed at the time like a silly and meaningless bit of marketing puffery now helps us identify cards that were graded early in that company's history, when they were excellent graders, rather than later in their history, when the wheels came off.  Such is the case with this gorgeous 1953 Topps single-print card of Hall of Famer Hal Newhouser, graded GEM MINT 9.5 with the "First Graded" designation.  Extraordinarily beautiful, razor sharp and well-centered, with no edge chipping.  Of course the card is being sold as-is, as there are never guarantees that a card will cross to the same grade with a different grading company (or at all), but this is certainly a spectacular-looking card, regardless.
