Need help from the 52 Mantle experts

[Matthew H]

You could buy a raw 52 Mantle, just do so from a reputable dealer. I think that a majority of the good ones (for sale) are slabbed while a majority of the non-slabbed ones are bad.

BTW- There is a post-war side of the board. (4th link from the top left)

The 1952 Topps Mantles get a free pass. The 1984 Fleer Strawberry doesn't.

It's a fake.

Some people actually don't know it's there, js.

I am sorry. I am on this board a year and never even realized it was there

Mantle ended up going for over 3G. This is the 3rd one the seller has sold in the past couple of weeks. All look different but none graded or in nice condition. The search continues
