1952 Topps Mantle - Opinions

[GasHouseGang]

Andrew,
I really wasn't trying to turn this into a KSA bashing thread, I just wanted to discuss if this Mantle was real. However, since you mentioned it, KSA has been discussed before. One of our members, FUBAR from Vancouver, B.C. said back in August:

"KSA was similar to PSA when grading first came out, their flips are similar, they used to be strict graders. Over the years, their reliability has gone way down and their grades have gone up to a point where most do not trust them anymore. If the cards are hockey, then i would feel ok accepting them. But i wouldn't trust them for anything else. Yes i own a couple KSA graded cards as that was readily available for a long time here in Canada."

So, back to the original question. Is this 1952 Mantle real?
