Title says it. Low number set with several dups (Berrax2, McDougaldx2, Raschix2, Campanellax2, Erskinex2, Kinerx2, Garagiolax2, Fellerx2, Fox x2). See scans below for average condition thruout (Mantle is o/c, Mays has great centering). What would be a fair purchase price. I want to be fair but don't want to overpay.

    I would start by getting the VCP for the major cards in that set. Mays, Mantle, Musial etc.. The condition looks mid-grade at best and some of the cards look to be PSA 2-3 grade. I would base my amount mostly on the Mantle and Mays. If both the Mays and Mantle graded a PSA 3 you are looking at 1200 give our take for the Mantle and 350 give or take for the Mays. Assuming that both of those cards grade a 3 then you are looking at 1500+ for those just those two. Hard to say how much more.

    If the Mantle grades a PSA 5 then you are looking at a 2400 give or take. I would be real cautious as the Mantle could easily be altered or a counterfeit. I would make sure whoever you are buying from is someone you can trust. That is my 2 cents. Good luck if you decide to make an offer.
