Robert ‘Bobby’ Charlton Card 3 – 1958-59 A&BC Footballers Red Back (PSA 6)
The Holy Grail of British football collecting. This is Bobby Charlton’s true rookie card from the 1958-59 A&BC Footballers series – the first dedicated football set ever produced in the UK.
Graded PSA 6 (Excellent-Mint), this red-backed variant with Planet offer represents the beginning of the Bobby Charlton legend.
Released just months after the Munich air disaster and the year Charlton debuted for England, this card captures a pivotal moment in football history.
