Let's see some Mickey Mantle cards!!

Posted By: PCI just posted this in the 1956 card thread, but it is worth repeating here ... On Mantle's 1956 Topps card, the first column of fans on the far left in the stands is repeated as the last column of fans on the right. Notice the guy with the suit and tie on, and the fellow with the horizontal stripe on his shirt leaning to his left. <img src="http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f327/patlizmeg/56Topps135Mantle.jpg" alt="[linked image]">

Posted By: PCNah Steve, the stripe shirt guy is just "getting in Mick's ear" (literally). Probably yelling "noonan", or something not printable. Either that, or they're just the first group to notice the giant Mantle head floating in the outfield. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height="14" width="14" alt="happy.gif">

Posted By: PCHere's a 1964 Topps Mantle, with the letter "Y" in Yankees appearing in yellow. Rather unusual ... <img src="http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f327/patlizmeg/scan-5.jpg" alt="[linked image]"> The bottom egde is straight but appears warped -- that's the plastic bag in the BVG slab (makes it tough to get real clean scans).

Posted By: Dave HornishHmmmm, that is an interesting color variation. Perhaps something obscured the final color pass on the Y? That would make it similar to a Herrer "error" in 58.

Let's see some Mickey Mantle cards!!

Posted By: PCI suppose that is what happened. There's also a very small amount of red missing from the "A", on the side closest to the "Y". Also, the yellow "Y" appears to be the exact same shade/tone as in Mickey's name at the bottom of the card. Easily my most interesting Mantle card.

Posted By: Steve FThat '64., Appears alcohol or acetone contacted the L side upper half. The colors are washed out within the photo as well. Some kid was a little sloppy.

Let's see some Mickey Mantle cards!!

Posted By: PCSteve -- I considered the same thing before I bought it. But I don't think anything got spilled on it for three reasons: (1) the '64s have red/orange backs, and there is no color loss on the back, (2) there is no difference in the white border/background in that area from the rest of the card (you'd expect it to see a brighter, or darker, section showing the "stain" or "bleach spot" compared to the other white sections) and (3) the yellow is exactly the same as the yellow in the name (and it would be too coincidental for the red to fade to the exact same yellow). More likely it is as Dave suggested ... the last color pass after yellow simply didn't reach that area.

Let's see some Mickey Mantle cards!!

Posted By: Steve FIf you're right, that's a cool error. It's shaped like a stain from here. I'd bought a raw card, a 49 leaf that had similar staining when the collector tried to remove writing from the border (blue ink). Over saturation with acetone removed the the blue alright but also wicked into the red ink causing a similar effect. I also have another somewhere, where a small spot of the red pass 'washed off' yet the yellow pass beneath remained. Like yours though, the front lithos were stained and the back inks appeared unharmed. Good luck
