Hi lady and gentlemen,
I just obtained a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle type 1 card. I was watching bluejacket 66 youtube video about spotting a fake mantle. According to his video, my Mantle is a fake? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUwmxKaMXmQ I believe the type 1 and 2 back is different. I am a little confuse right now. Here is the picture of the front and back of the card I just obtained. Is it real or fake? I might just send to PSA to have it reholder to make sure. ![]() ![]() |

He messed up the details of the backs in the video (it's noted in the video's description).
Your Mantle passes all the main authentic tests and looks real to me |

Wow, talk about going from rock bottom to sky high in an instant!!!
![]() (I'm summarizing here) The video basically tells you it's a fake, BUT said video has a big error in it, which makes the exact opposite true. Yowza, that's a freakin' happy ending if I ever saw one!!!! Congrats!!

Yup, it’s fake. I need a nice filler card for my Mantle run. Will you take $50.00 for it?

Thanks all. After replies and further research. I am fairly certain, the card I got is genuine.
Thanks again. John |
