1960 Topps #338 Ray Monzant PSA 8 - A Short-Lived Arm from Venezuela in Crisp, Vintage Condition

Ray Monzant’s big-league career may have been brief, but his story is etched into baseball history as part of the early wave of Venezuelan players to reach the majors. Pitching for the New York and later San Francisco Giants, Monzant showed flashes of potential before injuries derailed what could have been a longer stint in the show. His presence in the iconic 1960 Topps set captures a fleeting but meaningful moment from a truly international era in baseball’s expansion.

This PSA 8 graded copy is a sharp, high-end example of this lesser-seen card. The horizontal layout showcases Monzant mid-delivery with bold color, crisp detail, and a nicely focused image. Corners remain well-preserved and tight, while the surface maintains excellent gloss. The card’s centering and registration are solid—attributes that are particularly important for collectors focused on eye appeal.
