1985 Topps #193 Receiving Leaders – Ozzie Newsome / Art Monk PSA 9 – Hall of Fame Hands on One Card
When it comes to reliability, consistency, and elite production, Ozzie Newsome and Art Monk were in a league of their own. As the top AFC and NFC receivers from the 1984 season, these two future Hall of Famers headline one of the most quietly star-studded leader cards of the 1980s. Newsome, the Cleveland Browns' sure-handed tight end, redefined the position with his route-running and durability, while Monk, the Washington Redskins’ offensive workhorse, became the prototype for the modern possession receiver.
This PSA 9 example of 1985 Topps #193 showcases both legends side-by-side, framed in the set’s bold, colorful design. With crisp print quality, sharp corners, and excellent centering, this high-grade copy offers standout visual appeal—especially for a leader card that’s often overlooked in favor of single-player issues.
For collectors of Hall of Fame duos, Topps insert-style subsets, or high-grade 1980s football, this card checks all the boxes—a dual-threat display of greatness from two of the most consistent receivers the game has ever seen.
