This scarce Canadian card used to be in the PERSONAL COLLECTION of the three greatest ⚽️ futebol player EVER,  Pelé.


During what turned out to unfortunately be the last few weeks of his life, Pelé' invited PSA to physically witness him autographing his personal collection.

That created PSA/DNA's highest level of autograph authentication, something they refer to as ITP.


ITP stands for IN THE PRESENCE.


That's precisely how this card was signed, in Pelé's Brazilian home with PSA agents physically there to WATCH him sign this card.


Impressively, wish that hindsight tells us was only a few weeks before he'd lose his battle with cancer,  he was still able to flawlessly sign this card at a level that PSA calls GEM MINT 10.


While they conservatively only assessed the card as being a 1 5, it has no creases or wrinkles,  and it's unusually well centered 


A touch of product staining on the top edge/center , and only relatively moderate natural corner wear led to this seemingly too harshly assessed numeric grade
