Published in Brazil by Tupinamba Ltda., this is one of the most attractive early Pele issues.  Although PSA has determined that this card was issued in 1958-59, we believe that the Pele card was actually printed in 1960.  This belief is based on the fact that Jair, who was a rookie in 1960, is included in the 175-card set as card no. 107.  Pele's card is no. 109, which indicates that it was likely printed contemporaneously with the Jair card.  This issue was long thought to be a Pele rookie card, but evidence to the contrary does not diminish from the beauty of this early Brazilian issue.
