Good market for the seller, and sounds like he would like to sell it. They buyer will get a great card that they want. The selling outfit makes a little money. Pretty much a Win-Win-Win for all. Best of luck to both seller and buyer.

Yes. Evan also had a PSA 10 1953 Topps Mantle in his showcase.

It may be board heresy, but lay this card next to any known t206 Wagner and I would choose the Mantle for MY collection.

Not even a close call for me. There are what, 50 or so known Wagners? Compared to thousands of Mantles. For (relatively speaking) very little money one could get a nice EX MT or NM Mantle. From a collecting, not investing, perspective, is knowing the 9 is going to look better under a loupe really worth millions?

I totally understand the sentiment, but man, that Mantle 9 is cardboard perfection. It's like looking at the Grail; I almost need to avert my gaze it's so pretty. For those who value aesthetics over rarity, I can see why some may prefer this over a low grade Wagner. But I'll never be a player for either, so I admit my opinion really doesn't matter much here.

So for you, it appears that overall rarity vs condition is most important. I can totally relate as a photo Collector. The Mantle sure is pretty though. By far, the most ICONIC/recognizable baseball card(Americana) and MINT.

Meh, that's probably like a PSA 7.5 or something. Not worth your time.

Ralph seems to have confused this place with some place that puts up with a lot of crap.
