That does have great centering and color. But what is with the hole punch? Why would someone do that? To store it in a binder before penny sleeves were available? To be able to walk around with a ring of cards?

Kids did it to put on the wall. I know it's more common to see tack holes with discoloration, but some preferred a hole punch.

Great pickups everyone. Mike, so sorry to see what happened to that phenomenal piece. My personal opinion is that condition is basically irrelevant for items like that, but still should have been handled appropriately. I do bubble wrap and cardboard for anything of value when it goes through the mail. It’s a shame.
Ben, great cards as well. Do you have the Exhibit in hand yet and have you had an opportunity to compare it with another? Probably just the picture but color seems a little off. As for the hole punched card, I love it. I’ve got to do that to mine so I can flip through them easier.

Here's a 1956 tv guide pamphlet from Tuesday July 10th I got recently. The all star game is of course the star of the show that day.
Mick in good company. Look at the names of who hit a home run that day. Mickey mantle Willie Mays Stan Musial Ted Williams Unreal.

Wavered on picking this up for a few weeks and finally decided to add this to my collection.

That's a beauty Mike. ^^^^^
These aren't necessarily new pickups (some are), but I gathered some cards the last year or so and finally sent them in to SGC. A number of these I picked up raw, here on the board. Excuse the lighting glare seen in a couple of these pics. The W.S. Batting Foes is very clean/no snow, unusual for that card. I picked up the '55 Bowman Mantle, in early 2020. It does have some wrinkles and gum stain on the back, plus the usual "chipping" thats everywhere on the '55s. I believe I paid around $150 for it, figuring it would be hit with the "authentic" designation, but I was surprised when it came back a 1.5. The '68 is obviously trimmed. It is such a brutal trim job, I can only imagine some kid took scissors to it. It adds to the charm, and I think I picked it up for like $50, so the price was right.

Picked this up in the last Hunt Auction. Love the DiMaggio comparison.

1953 Topps Mantle Dvorak Painting Print
Several years ago, I acquired 1 of 50 prints of a painting by Gerry Dvorak depicting Mantle's 1953T card. It was authorized by the Mantle estate. Gerry had not created the original Mantle painting used in the set. He did paint 50 of the originals used to produce the set. There are several articles and interviews with Dvorak that appeared in hobby and newspaper articles. The print I own (No. 4 of 50) has original Mantle and Dvorak signatures. Below you will find the image and the handwritten Christmas card note from his friend, Kim. She also sent 10 of the hand-out 1953T prints used in Gerry's sports collecting and public appearances. I thought my hobby friends -- particularly Mantle and 1953T baseball card enthusiasts -- would enjoy seeing the image. -- Dan

Recent Type I pick up. PSA in its infinite wisdom lists it as a 1950s photo, but it is probably really a 1960s photo. It first shows up in the 1963 Sports Service photo set.

A three-for-one post. These make a nice grouping.
The auction house said this is from 1954. Could be I suppose. It was used for the Baseball Monthly premium. Mantle Photo Yankees issue maybe 1954 8-by-10 reduced.jpg This is definitely a team issued photo. It was used in a 1961 paperback book, "Big Time Baseball." Therefore, it can be no later than a 1961 photo. I'm not sure where else it might have been used. Mantle Photo Yankees Issue 8 by 10.jpg This is used in the 1961 Sports Service Yankees photo set (a cropped version). Therefore, it can also be no later than a 1961 photo. I'm also not sure where else it might have been used. Mantle Photo Yankees Issue maybe 1961 8-by-10 resized.jpg Any guidance on any other place these photos were used would be greatly appreciated.

Mike,
Nice pickups as usual The last photo was used on most of his 1963 tri-fold mailers (12/63 is a different pic). I had a new one come today…the 54. Just need a 55 banged up copy now. Last edited by bswhiten; 06-09-2024 at 04:26 AM. |
