Lots of fake mantle rookies out there. I'd be very very worried about one that wasn't graded by either PSA, SGC, or BVG. Otherwise it's just too easy to get ripped off.

Fakes have been seen in KSA holders.
Have you got a back scan? The last fake in a KSA was outed as it had a type I front and a II back. Looks shady to say the least, no reason selling that card in a KSA holder even as a 1 unless it's bad or you like to burn money.

KSA hasn't got the best reputation, especially when it comes to baseball cards.
https://www.google.ca/search?q=ksa+g...hrome&ie=UTF-8 Personally, with me, and if I was in the market for one, I would likely avoid this one until I could have it verified by another TPG (PSA or SGC) or by someone who knows their stuff. Out of curiosity, and only if you want to disclose it, what are they asking for this one? There is some great info out there about spotting Mantle fakes and here are a few to help get you started. Good luck. http://bbcemporium.com/1952-topps-mi...terfeit-guide/ http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=133602 https://sportscardinfo.wordpress.com...ey-mantle-311/

In my honest opinion I think you could do a bit better with your stated budget of 11-12 k Canadian. Although the centering on that bad boy is stellar for 52 Topps.

i ll pass also because if in the futur i want to resell the card that will be impossible in a ksa holder.
i will stick with PSA i think with all your advice its the good way to go. there are many on ebay i will try to find a corect price with one of these seller. |

Like I mentioned earlier, your seller is offside if he thinks that card will cost a grand to get graded. My gut tells me, if you push the idea and show him the links/info on what realistically it will cost, he may proceed with that? Also, like what has been mentioned to you, suggest to him he will have a greater chance of selling it in a SGC or PSA slab, especially if it comes back graded. Good luck.

Folks can say the card looks real from a photo all day long. The truth of the matter is that for that particular card not to be in a Big 3 slab is an incredibly huge red flag. Is it possible that it's real? Of course. But I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

Real or not, stay away. There are no free lunches, if it seems too good to be true......

The corner and border wear looks off to me. If this card is going to be the center piece of your collection, you should be able to find a better looking 1 for 10k or so, and get one in a PSA or SGC holder.
It would take a very good deal for me to gamble on a 52 Mantle in a KSA holder. This does not sound like much of a deal to me. I would pass.
