Picked up a couple more Holiday Inn items.
A mechanical pencil and a bar of soap.

A non-mainstream Mickey Mantle of significance
I was watching the spring, 2019 Huggins & Scott auction closely. They were offering a 1954 Stahl-Meyer Franks Mickey Mantle in PSA 1 POOR. In spite of its lowly grade, it has a lowlier PSA pop of 17 for the year. Though there were plenty of creases, a few stains, and the factory lot inventory number stamp (that landed in the exotic purple background beside Mick's cheek), the card presented very well, with the heart of the card---Mickey's face, hat, and neck virtually unmarred. With the required juice, the card sold for $6,519.
That's a very impressive price for a PSA 1 Mantle. To put it into perspective, earlier this year a 1954 Stahl-Meyer Willie Mays went for $1,320, or about 20% of what the Mantle auctioned for. While the '54 Stahlie of Mickey Mantle is considered his toughest Stahl-Meyer, the '54 Willie Mays Stahlie was the only year they issued Say Hey. Very interesting. --- Brian Powell Last edited by brian1961; 05-27-2019 at 08:59 PM.

 I think there are 4 brands of Mantle Holiday Inn soaps and I now have 2 of them. I think there are also a couple of different sizes although I don't know if all four brands come in different sizes or if it's only 1 brand that is a different size or what. But, that is part of the fun ... discovering what's out there.

Mike, you're amazing. My family and I spent the night at Mickey's Holiday Inn during the summer of '62--nice memory. I wish I could be more specific, but I believe SPORT magazine did a short, but picture-loaded piece on Mickey's hotel in the late 50s, not too long after it opened. If you don't happen to have it, it would be a perfect companion piece to your HI hoard. Have good day, bro. ---Brian Powell

Don't know if it was posted already but here is mine. Nothing special, but it was the first Mantle I ever picked up.

PSA unofficially responded on Net54 that they will review all these cards for free under their grade guarantee! Check your registry set Mantles. I will not buy any graded cards until this scandal is resolved to my satisfaction. Posted this on all my sets on the registry: Quote:
 If anyone wants to make offers on my Mantle cards, send me a message. I think I was #23 before turning them all off this morning.
