It's not prewar, but I was shocked to see the SGC 30 1952 Topps Mantle go for $10,555. It looked to be pretty harshly graded, but I was surprised to see it go that high.

That's about 50% higher than it should be, but the flowery prose WAS well written!

High price but that card had the visual appeal of a much nicer card, imo. The centering was almost the best I have ever seen on a '52 mantle. If I had an extra 10k I might have been a bidder. It is a really nice card..

I'm shocked....utterly shocked ! ! To hear that you are interested in a 1952 Topps Mantle

I pulled this one from a 5-cent pack in the Fall of '52. To me it's priceless. But, if I ever decide to trade
or sell it, I will let you have 1st crack at it.

Ted- that is a great looking card. It begs the question though, as a young boy, I guess you played with it some? I appreciate the thought of a first crack if you ever sell it !!

ATTICS........that is the secret of BB card survival. All my BB, FB, Boxing and Non-Sports card were out of sight in the attic
of my folks house for 20 years until I recovered them in the 1970's. Guys like this Mantle and my 1949 LEAF Babe Ruth were
treated with more respect than other cards.

Best regards,

Ted

wow...strong prices. i would have taken the scarce e102 wagner throwing card over the higher graded, more common batting pose...for a fraction of the price..but then again...who cares about e102's! And, WOW...a shonen's Ruth postcard for almost $500!!! You'd see them on ebay all day for 2-300 max? The economy seems fine in the vintage world!

That must have been amazing to experience pulling Mick's rookie out of that pack. My childhood pulls might have reached the pinnacle of Juan Gonzalez or Frank Thomas rookies. Oh, those sorry, overpriced pieces of junk.
