1960 Tattoos
Quote:
 I have a set of these and some " unopened" packs. When collecting them I was always amused by sellers who offered unopened packs with possibility of a Mantle because it was easy to know who was in the pack by sliding the wrapped gum out. Also, what was it Tattoos in 1960 but Tatoos in 1964 . :-)

I have always found that amusing as well. There is no way most sellers would take a risk of letting a Mantle go like that when they could easily look inside. So, I would never take a chance. Fortunately, this guy guaranteed it was the Mantle autoball and showed clear pictures of the printed in Canada lines on the wrapper to confirm it was OPC.
How do you store your unopened packs? Now I will have to search for a Topps Venezuela Tattoo of Mantle, although I am sure that is not something I will ever come across. Last edited by Bestdj777; 10-28-2013 at 06:44 AM.

Munson placeholder...
I've always wanted to own this Munson...got this one for a song and it will do quite nice until I can upgrade to a near mint example.
 Happy with the centering, and even the corners, to an extent. The scuffing on the bottom border must be from the scanner or the slab becuase it doesn't look that bad with the card in hand.

Great Jackie's Shaun, How is fatherhood treating you?
I can't say I have ever seen that pack. Congrats on the pickup. Are you having it graded or leaving it as is? Nice Munson, I think everyone loves the pose on that card.
