I knew you would have snatched that one up in a heartbeat! I just happened to do search of newly listed Mantles and it was one of the first to show up. I got lucky on that one.

I just bout that card in a lower grade. I would have jumped on that. Love the 59 design and the centering and color on that card are bananas.

Well done!

.....I have a soft spot for Old Brooklyn Dodgers hurlers....and the side-to-side centering on that Mantle is astounding for a '61 Topps..

This Jay Publishing photo was freed from a sealed pack yesterday. I'm guessing it's from '62. Is that right?

That is MY FAVORITE Jackie card, hands down. The one card I have to represent him as well. Such a gorgeous and slept-on card in the hobby.

I would be excited for that card too.

Congrats yanksfan09 on your first Jackie Robinson. I will be adding my first J.R. at some point. What made you decide on this one?

Thanks Everyone! I just really liked the look of this card. I think it very well may be his best looking card from any year and it's still a fairly early card of him. It's just a great image, and also much more affordable than his "rookie" era 47-49 issues.

Nice pick up also BTW Matt.
