Just finished up that 53 Mantle earlier today. Cut junk era commons (with some other more recent commons spattered in).

Your work is incredible! I can only begin to imagine the time and dedication it must take to complete something like that, let alone having it/them turn out as accurate as they do!

Thanks for sharing!

The upper left corner is bumped a bit. That'll lower the grade a little.

Thank you! It went from a hobby, to a passion, to a career pretty quickly. I'm having the time of my life with it right now.

The surface is a bit rough, but it will have to do.


Here are my other Mantles....sorry for the bad photos. I'll have the '62T, 56T, and 52B done at some point in the near future.

Great to hear!

On average, how long does it take to complete one like posted above?

Those are beauties too!

Not mine but a friends who is not a member just picked it up. A very cool 1963 Jello Mickey Mantle with a print offset. I love the print error cards like these. Those double eyes are awesome!
