If you like owning cards that were PERSONALLY OWNED by GOATS, you may have just found the card for you.



This remarkable Nm/Mt card grade Pelé was previously OWNED BY PELÉ,HIMSELF.



PSA/DNA personally came to Pelé's Guarajà, Brazil waterfront estate to WITNESS him signing his cards on his home.



He signed this card in either October or November of 2022. In December of 2022, he went into the hospital where he finally succumbed to his lengthy battle with ♋️ cancer.  😢 😭



I was fortunate enough to have been invited to his home to help him collate his collection and also to WITNESS THE SIGNING.



I will never forget the many days in October and November of 2022, where I had the amazing honor to be invited to Pelé's home to help him with his collection.



I'll forever miss what to millions was just the greatest futebol ⚽️ player EVER.



To me, he was just an amazingly KIND and shockingly HUMBLE man.



Apparently, coming from utter poverty and them being declared a national hero to 🇧🇷 Brazil did nothing to make the man anything but humble.


❤️ do Rei 💜



The KING



Pelé




And please DO note, any card that PSA has EVER graded that showed Pelé but wasn't OWNED by Pelé is only labeled as


Pele



(No accent mark)



The accent mark meant so much to Pelé, and it was a requirement for PSA to be allowed to come to his home to witness the signing.



'Pele', in Portuguese, translates to


Skin



BUT...


"PELÉ " translates to something betti different



In the Portuguese language, the word "Pelé" is an adjective that means "exceptional, incomparable, unique". It can also be used to describe someone or something that is "out of the ordinary" or "superior". For example, you might say "He is the Pelé of basketball" or "She is the Pelé of dramaturgy".
