Interesting read on the Red Heart set. It's not a long drawn out article, just straight to the point.

Woof!!

    I've noticed the Mantle in PSA 8 has been consistently selling for $2000+ these days. It's taken a while for it to reach that point believe it or not.

    I've always liked the look of these cards. Here are two examples on Ebay of the Mantle that are nice looking. The PSA 7 is better centered, but the PSA 8.5 has better color.

    Thanks for posting this. The Red Heart set was the first graded set that I added to the registry. The Mantle is my favorite Mantle card.

    Check out this bad boy on Ebay right now. He wasn't in the Topps or Bowman set in 1954 and he was the spokesperson for this set. This is an awesome card. $25,575

    Stan Musial's picture is on the advertisement for the set.
