Really cool you still own this heirloom from your dad. That is the cleanest best looking 3 52' Mantle I have ever seen. If it weren't for the protection the case provides, I would remove it and make it raw again. (That grade is a slap in The Mick's face)

I have always wanted this card when I was pulling the reprints out of 1989
Bowman packs. Now I have a real one with zero plans of ever parting with it.

Not my "holy grail" per se as it's existence was unknown until somewhat recently...but probably my most unique card.
