Oscar Robertson – Autographed 1961 Fleer Rookie Card

Oscar Robertson is a Hall of Fame point guard and member of the NBA Top 50.  He was drafted by the Cincinnati Royals with the 1st pick in the 1960 NBA Draft.  As a rookie, he averaged 30.5 points per game which is the 3rd highest of any rookie in NBA history.  In 1962, he became the first player in NBA history to average a triple-double over the course of an entire season.  Oscar Robertson is widely regarded as one of the Top 10 players of all-time.

Below is a look at some of Oscar Robertson’s career accomplishments and highlights.

Oscar Robertson’s rookie card is in the 1961 Fleer set.  Throughout the years, he has been very hit or miss TTM.  I was fortunate to get him once on a lower end card however he only signed it “Big O”.  I purchased a raw card on eBay and sent it into a paid signing.  I requested both his nickname and HOF inscription but was informed that he no longer signs his nickname.
