Okay, took a while but I can finally share the best centered 1951 Mick I ever found, and focused, too. Had been hoping to get these three cards centered for many years, as they are notorious for poor centering. Need a new hobby goal now, lol.

Is that a record above? The Mantle image on it, with nothing but clouds above him, is really striking.

Yes, it has "33 1/3rd" at the top left corner. They made a set of baseball players under the Columbia Auravision label. Here's the back:
You would punch out the hold in the center and it would play on the vinyl side (Mantle's picture). You can see the threads reflecting at the top of the front picture.

Wow...sweet centered Mantles. I'm envious. It sucks that the PSA paper flip on the 52 would grade a 1 lol |

Did you just pick up that 51 Bowman? I think I was looking at it last week on eBay and almost pulled the trigger on it! Absolutely gorgeous card. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Caveat emptor on '53 PSA 9. Seller does not sell baseball cards and has some negatives. No thanks.

if legit, is that card really worth $350,000 or close to it?

100% is only in the past year. If you look at the "All Feedbacks" tab and go back to the early ones, there are a few that are sketchy and have responses.
Cert # checks out with having the hologram flip front and reverse barcode, plus scans aren't stolen from an auctionhouse. AHs don't photographs fingers in with the cards... As to value, PSA SMR is $235,000 but who knows with a high end card like this and only 2 higher.

VERY excited to have picked this up in Goodwin last night. Centering is perfect, and I don't know that I've ever seen better registration on any '53 Bowman card, Mantle or otherwise. I paid high for it but hopefully it will be worth it once I get the card in-hand. My '53 set had stalled because I could never find a Mantle that I liked...now I can start it up again!

Rare Mickey Mantle baseball cards pleasure reading ...
Since the first 3 chapters of my book on immediate post-war regionals, Never Cheaper By the Dozen, concerns a trio of important Commerce Comet items, I thought this might interest some of you Mickey Mantle collectors.
My book is available as an E-book on a CD, which I sell via mail order. However, it is also available as a digital download. If you go to Amazon's web site (SEE LINK BELOW), my book listing offers a free "Look Inside", where you'll find the table of contents, introduction, and the first two chapters. Chapter 1 involves a mint condition 1962 JELL-O Apple Flavor complete unfolded box, with Mickey Mantle as the free prize card. Since purchasing this rare gem 30 years ago, I've not come across anther Mick like it. It may be unique. Chapter 2 covers the gorgeous and majestic 1960 Post Cereal Mantle. Free pleasure reading with lots of information, stories, memories, and insight. Naturally, should you decide to purchase the 478-page E-book on a CD, I will service you swiftly, and if you prefer the Amazon digital download version, it's a snap. Best regards to all. --- Brian Powell Never Cheaper by the Dozen. Last edited by brian1961; 04-04-2018 at 11:36 AM. |
