Gorgeous, high-grade example of the rookie card of Hall of Fame outfielder Billy Williams.  An underrated slugger, Williams concluded his 18-year career with a .290 average and 426 lifetime home runs, playing much of his career in a pitching-friendly era that ultimately concluded with the league lowering the pitchers mound to "level the playing field," as it were.  Graded MINT 9 by PSA, the card is nearly perfect, well-centered with none of the print defects so common with this issue, and a rough cut left edge that confirms the natural edges of the card. PSA has graded just two examples of this card at the GEM MINT level, enhancing the desirability of this card in this particular grade.  A true stunner.
