Didn't realize how much I love the look of the 56 Mantle until I finally got one in person for my PC. I absolutely love it and plan to eventually pick up a double. Glad to finally cross this one off my list. Also added another 66 Mantle from the REA auction didn't think my bid would hold up, but not going to complain!

Great Mantles! The 1956 is one of very few cards I enjoy having doubles (or more) of.

[Bestdj777]

I already had a copy of the 66, but the front of this one was incredibly clean and I wanted to see whether I could remove the scrapbook paper from the back (thoughts?) and upgrade the PSA 2 I have in my collection. One of the two will be for sale soon if there is any interest.

The 68 was one of three cards I was still looking for before I consider my collection complete. The back is perfectly clean.

Some sweet Mantle cards, guys!

[AustinMike]

Some really nice cards everyone!

Chris, congrats on getting your '68 Venezuelan Mantle! Know you've been looking for awhile. Trying to find someplace where you could improve either card with a little touch-up but not having much luck. Guess you can put your markers down.

A couple of nice Mantles you have picked. I would love to add a 56 Mantle to my collection. I will at some point. Congrats. Until then I will continue to work on my Willie Mays run. Never sure how the centering on the 70's work but I thought this one looked pretty good. Here is my latest.

I picked up 2 more for my 1958 set. The checklist is numerical version and unmarked, so a great find! getting ever so closer to the full run of all 534 cards.

Thanks!

[begsu1013]

and here she is!! super stoked...

[jb67]

That is one nice looking Ryan rookie for being a Venezuelan. Not sure I have seen one any nicer than that one. I can see why you are stoked! That is a major score. Congrats!
