1954 Bowman #113 Charlie Conerly PSA 9 – A Golden-Age Quarterback in Mint Form

By 1954, Charlie Conerly had established himself as one of the most dependable and intelligent quarterbacks of pro football’s postwar era. The longtime New York Giants leader brought a combination of precision passing, calm under pressure, and a deep understanding of the game that made him the backbone of the franchise throughout the 1950s. Known for his durability and his ability to elevate the offense with both accuracy and vision, Conerly would eventually guide the Giants to the 1956 NFL Championship and earn recognition as one of the league’s defining field generals of his time. The mid-’50s represented the height of his career—steady, confident, and commanding.

The 1954 Bowman #113 captures Conerly in a rich, painterly portrait that perfectly reflects the charm of early football issues. Bowman’s artwork-heavy design gives the card a warm, nostalgic character, and this PSA 9 Mint example is the kind of ultra-high-grade survivor that rarely appears. The colors remain vivid and perfectly balanced, the surface gloss is exceptionally clean, and the centering is superb—a balance that is tough to find in this set. Sharp edges and crisp borders complete a presentation that stands among the finest known for this issue.
