Mantle set registry no longer 100%

[AustinMike]

What about the 7 (nice number, ) J.D. McCarthy postcards and the 8 x 10 J.D. McCarthy photo?

And the 2 8 x 10 Holiday Inn photos (one with Maris). Not to mention the Holiday Letterheads (at least 3 that I know of), the napkin, packs of sugar, ...;

Plus the Wonderbread premium photo;

The variation in the 1954 NY Journal card;

The 1954 Sports Illustrated Topps "Card;"

The 1956 Big League Statue card;

The Bat Master premium photo;

The Mickey Mantle's Big League Baseball premium photo;

The Country Kitchen premium photo;

The Denim Jeans label;

The Sports Pix Magazine premium photo;

The 1962 and 1964 Auravision records;

The 1963 Hospital postcard should be added, after I get one of course ;

The Requena photos, one of Mantle and one of Mantle and Maris;

The 1969 Rawlings promo card;

Also, the 9 x 12 Dormand if it's not too big.

Lastly, the one I'd like to see get on the list the most is Mantle's 1951 self-promotion card.

I wonder if they will do the same with the Clemente Master set? I checked and it doesn't appear so at this time. There certainly aren't many of the Clemente Rawlings premiums out there.

I will have to try sending mine in - if I remember correctly I think there might be 2 different ones - 1 B&W and 1 color!

Would love to see the color one...now back to Mr. Mantle

They only add in the cards that they've graded and someone requests to be part of the set. PSA doesn't go out looking for cards to add to registry sets. That's all introduced by the collectors.

Mike, my opinions in red...

Doubt PSA will ever grade since tough to pinpoint printed dates & they kept printing into the 70's right?

I can confirm PSA is not slabbing the HI photos. They said not enough catalog info.
I have 4 different letterheads and 2 different envelopes but doubt they would grade. That would be a trip if they slabbed sugar! lol
There are also the 3 different brochures that are cataloged - they might actually slab those since they are 8.5x11 folded.

Plus the Wonderbread premium photo;
Isn’t it larger than 8.5x11?

The variation in the 1954 NY Journal card;
All of them have slight variation w/numbers 😊

The 1954 Sports Illustrated Topps "Card;"
Too many reprints.

The 1956 Big League Statue card;
It’s cataloged so will probably be slabbed at some point.

The Bat Master premium photo;
Probably won’t since almost an ad.

The Mickey Mantle's Big League Baseball premium photo;
Think this will be slabbed in Jumbo.

The Country Kitchen premium photo;
Scarce but if sent in they would slab imo.

The Denim Jeans label;
Doubt it.

The Sports Pix Magazine premium photo;
Think this will be slabbed in Jumbo.

The 1962 and 1964 Auravision records;
Doubt it.

The 1963 Hospital postcard should be added, after I get one of course ;
Already slabbed and red section…at least in Mantle Super set.

The Requena photos, one of Mantle and one of Mantle and Maris;
Think these will be slabbed in Jumbo.

The 1969 Rawlings promo card;
Think they would slab this scarce one if sent in.

Also, the 9 x 12 Dormand if it's not too big.
Too big.

Lastly, the one I'd like to see get on the list the most is Mantle's 1951 self-promotion card.
Agree

I would add:
Equitable sports 8x11, Manny's 8x10, complete Box w/mantle, 5 additional picture pack & action pictures, Topps plaque - Maybe too thick?

I believe the Hospital Postcard is in red in the super set because the example I requested that they add only graded authentic (they thought it was miscut but I’m fairly certain it was trimmed down). I haven’t requested that they add it to the Master Set yet but will at some point. Mike, if you want to trade your Rawlings for it, let me know!

There are so many items that aren’t in yet that should be, but it’s such a frustrating process trying to get stuff added that I won’t bother anymore.

Agreed re the Armour coins. The 1970 clinic card post dates his career though and probably is better suited for the super set.

Thanks for all the replies regarding the Mantles not on the "Master" list. I should mention that I don't participate in the registry, but I just thought since it is a "Master" list, it should include everything that we know of. It even includes items that were not meant to be cut from a box, e.g., the little photo on the top flap of the Transogram box. But yet, items that we've mentioned are not included?

What about the 7 (nice number, ) J.D. McCarthy postcards and the 8 x 10 J.D. McCarthy photo?

Yes, they were printed for a long time. But, the Exhibit postcards were printed for a while. Doesn't PSA list the date as 1947-1966 on Exhibit post cards?

And the 2 8 x 10 Holiday Inn photos (one with Maris). Not to mention the Holiday Letterheads (at least 3 that I know of), the napkin, packs of sugar, ...;

The sugar was kind of tongue in check, but also pointing out the inconsistency of PSA. The packet of sugar I have is not all that thick and might fit in a holder. But even if it doesn't, couldn't a person remove the sugar and have it graded? PSA encourages the destruction (yeah, an over exaggeration) of match books by having all the matches removed so they can be slabbed.

Plus the Wonderbread premium photo;
Isn’t it larger than 8.5x11?
The Wonderbread photo is 5x7.

The 1954 Sports Illustrated Topps "Card;"
Too many reprints.
Isn't that PSA's job - to distinguish between the real deal and reprints/forgeries?

The Bat Master premium photo;
Probably won’t since almost an ad.
The Bat Master photo was a premium found inside the Bat Master product and is no more an ad than the HI premium postcard.
Also, isn't the Bobbin' Head photo actually listed as an ad photo?

The Denim Jeans label;
Doubt it.
These are probably not much different than the HI coasters.

The Sports Pix Magazine premium photo;
Think this will be slabbed in Jumbo.
There are two sizes of these. What is the maximum size PSA will slab? One is 8x10 which I gather they would slab. The other is listed as 8-1/2x10-1/2, but the one I have is 8x10-1/2 with no sign of trimming, which I assume would be too large?

Also, yes to the Mascot dog food, adding the colors to the Armour coins, Mannyland photo, etc.

"rawlings 69 yes however in red...post career card"
As are everything issued in '69 including Topps cards.

Chris, if I had an extra Rawlings card, I would definitely trade with you. But I don't. However, I do have an extra '65 Yankees photo set with Mantle. I'd gladly trade you the entire set for just the Mantle hospital postcard.

Lastly, "68 picture pack photo". What is this and who issued it? I hadn't heard of this photo pack before.

[sflayank]

68 photo pack
10 color photos in plastic bag with header card
Sold mine before they announced jumbo holders
