1981 Fleer – Phil Niekro #242 SGC 8.5 features the Hall of Fame knuckleball pitcher during his late-career years with the Atlanta Braves. The 1981 Fleer release marked the company’s return to the baseball card market after two decades, making it a historically important set for modern collectors.

Graded SGC 8.5 (Near Mint/Mint+), this card retains sharp corners, clean edges, and strong centering—an impressive example from an early 1980s issue known for print and centering challenges. Niekro’s legendary longevity, 318 career wins, and signature knuckleball delivery make this a timeless addition to any vintage baseball collection.

A strong collector’s piece for fans of classic Braves pitchers, Hall of Fame greats, and early Fleer-era releases.
