A new Mantle acquisition from the National
Hi Guys:
Picked this up in Chicago. It is a Post Cereal CANADIAN Supermarket display banner. It was intended to fold in half and hang over a wire above the cereal aisle in the Canadian Supermarkets to advertise the cards on the back of the 1962 Post cereal boxes. Sorry for the flash and shadows in the photo This joins my 62 Post AMERICAN display banner shown in the small photo next to the Canadian.

Thanks a lot Jeremy. I always had the thought process- “i can always get one of those”. But.. all of a sudden, 1453 total psa pop doesn’t look like that many with the addition of new collectors. I figured i better just get one before it is really too late.

When you lay it out there like that, yeah the 52T Mantle isn't all that common and not near enough to supply the current demand, let alone future demand for this card.
|
#1608
|
||||
|
||||
Agreed. Especially when one considers that there are probably a few hundred at the high end of the spectrum that are priced out of range for most collectors, and another couple hundred that suffer from eye appeal problems that will make them unsuitable for any given collector based on whatever his preferences/peeves are. That leaves lots of guys competing over that number that is left in the center, so to speak.

Man, over a month since this thread saw a bump. How about I bump it up with a Mantle I picked up today?
It's for my 1957 Topps and it's not in the greatest shape as it has a couple of creases (one on the left edge and the other near the top). It's going into my set, but I'll have to upgrade it later. Why buy it if I'm going to upgrade you ask? Because I got it for $100 at the local show today. Probably could've (should've actually) gotten it a little cheaper or at least seen if the seller had gone down a little more). But I'm okay with a $100 bill for a Mantle, especially a 57.

Glad to see another post. I thought maybe collector interest in Mantle had died.
You won't ever regret paying $100 for this card. |

Thanks. I'm waiting until PSA catches up a bit to think about getting it graded. Or maybe I'll send it to SGC. I can't decide.

Not sure who’d be more favorable given the print lines but maybe be a thought in selecting who to grade it? Absolutely gorgeous card.

1960’s Rawlings Gloves Ad Poster and 1968 Sports Illustrated Poster #8A1 (still sealed in plastic). How do you guys display your posters? Top loader? Frame? |

I haven’t framed mine as I also collect art and just don’t have the room on the wall. The posters I have that will fit in toploaders are in them and in a water resistant artist portfolio with cardboard to keep them from moving around too much. I have left some in tubes but it’s not ideal.

I try to have the large items framed so I can see them. However, that does eat up a lot of wall space. My wife has been nice enough to let me use the entry hallway to hang a bunch of stuff, including large posters. But I do have some other items that aren't framed yet because I'm not sure of where I'll put them. Hmmm, I can't seem to get the first two pictures to show up properly. But anyway, you get the gist.

I forgot you had the full Jello ad. Very jealous as that looks twice as good as the 1/2 I have! The SI stuff looks terrific as well. One day I’ll have to put some baseball stuff on the wall.

Hey AustinMike, I truly love your framed JELL-O ad of Mickey; that is saturated with eye appeal!!!
I also congratulate you for the way you've framed the the 1954 Sports Ill. paper Yanks--nice. As an aside, I sure as anything wish Topps had used that breathtaking George Silk portrait of our Mickey, used by Sports Illustrated to make their paper Mantle, to craft their recent 2021 Topps X Mickey Mantle card. They chose the same original photo used on his '52 Bowman, which I hate because of Mick's serious, almost irritated expression on his face. The glorious George Silk portrait would have been perfect. Topps did everything else correct on the front---nice light blue background, great black 'n white extra photo, and the right period autograph. Topps screwed up the backside, however, giving the SAME backside they used on their 1955 Topps Mantle creation! Not to be vain, but they shouldda asked me, which would never happen anyway as I'm a nobody. But, I'm right this time! My suggestion is to rectify the situation---make a run of exactly 100 of the way the 1954 would look with the George Silk photo, and create a right proper 1954 backside. Have them all graded at least PSA 10 and identified as "UPDATE VERSION". I'll leave it to the Topps people how to market those modern gems. All right, I can dream can't I! All the best to you, AustinMike. You sure have a rousing hobby den, sir. Kudos, bro!!! --- Brian Powell Last edited by brian1961; 11-17-2021 at 09:14 AM. |

Thanks Chris and Brian. I also really enjoy the Jell-O ad. However, a Net54er has said that real Jell-O ads have a number on their bottom border. I bought this already framed and haven't had the courage to look to see if there is a number. I'll let my kids worry about it when I'm gone. Getting back to unframed posters, I did get the '62 Post poster from the same Net54er. Unfortunately it is sitting in a box waiting to be framed which won't happen until I can find more wall space. I'd like to move the Rawlings ad and put the Post ad next to the Jell-O ad. And I have the Yoo-Hoo poster that I also need to get framed (in a shadow box frame because of the faux frame on the poster). That would look great on the other side of the Jell-O ad.
Brian, I haven't seen the new Mantle card you're talking about. I have my eBay Mantle search set up to exclude anything after 1970. I'll have to take a look at it at some point.

Where is the number supposed to be on the advertisement? I don’t think I have one on mine but I can check—all I have is the portrait side of the advertisement, but I know mine is real—the colors are spot on, I can’t imagine someone would have faked it and then cut it in half, and it’s autographed.

Shoot me a message with your address if you are collecting the 2021 set. I ended up with an extra 1952 Topps (and may end up with 1 or 2 others), that I am happy to send you.

Will do, Chris. Thank you, my friend.
While I did not collect this beautiful set, I immediately zeroed in on the reprint of the 1963 Topps Dice Game Mick. It's a honey and a half. I love it so much. Remember the 5 new to the hobby Dice Game cards that were submitted to Mile High or Memory Lane Auctions a few years ago? Recall the Dick Groat had his hat reconstructed to be a St. Louis Cardinal, with his team designation as St. Louis Cardinals. In November, 1962, Dick was sent to the Cards. Also, the Norm Sieburn card shows him with an A's uniform not used until 1962. It was Topps expert Keith Olbermann that brought this revelation to the hobby at the time. So, the Dice Game year is 1963. Nothing earth-shattering, but how long it will take the hobby, and Topps, to call the year correctly remains to be seen. PROBLABLY GLACIER-SPEED!) Same with my proving in NEVER CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN the Home Run Derby set was issued in 1960, not 1959, due to Rocky Colavito's card showing a team designation as Detroit Tigers, to whom the Rock was traded in mid-April, 1960. Enough of my palabre. Take care, friend. All the best to your wife and family. ---Brian Powell |

As usual, very cool stuff Mike! You show me the other items I need to pickup to frame
I bought a few of the 2021 X Mantle boxes too. Fun to open since I have not opened any new stuff in a few years. I pulled a low numbered standup reprint card. Would have been way cooler if you could actually make the Mick stand up! |

I went through my old emails and see that the the ID number on the Jell-O poster is "next to the bottom left corner of the Mantle photo." So I suppose that puts it near the center.

Unfortunately, one thing I found when getting items framed is that the framing can cost more than the item. But I still think it is worth it.

I am the fellow who told Mike about the numbers on the Jello Mantle display piece. I won one from Heritage and asked if the numbers were there . It had been framed so they could not see it. They promised if I won it they would take it out of the frame to check. When they did it was not there so I did not buy it. You can see the location ( although very small now) in this REA listing when you enlarge the photo by clicking it a few times to see the largest blow up: https://robertedwardauctions.com/auc.../#&gid=1&pid=1 It used to be able to be magnified more than you can now. But if you look under the "G" in Gelatin you will see what I recall says "Litho Made in USA" or something close to that. Then under the "T" in Dessert close to the photo you can see the small numbers Post/Jello put on all their display items. But as I say the numbers are too small to see now. These should be on any original Jello Mantle display piece. This should help you IDing the one you have.
