Info Needed On Mickey Mantle Card

in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
This is a late 80's i think issue. It was put out by Sports Impressions, and it is ceramic.. my question is the signature.; did these cards come with a stamped signature?

I did a PSA/DNA QO and it was likely genuine, but since it was not seen in person, it still might be stamped.

any info is welcomed.. thanks

    I have the same Mantle autograph. I got it as a gift from a friend and don't know the exact origins, but I think he met Mantle at a charity function at the Loma Linda golf course, when Mantle lived close by there around 1987 or so. Mine did not have a certificate with it and I think mine was also a little creased in the center, but I don't have it here with me to verify.

    this card is ceramic, so it would not crease, it would break.

    anyother info on these cards?

    My card isn't ceramic (it is glossy paper), but it is the same picture/design and the signature looks similar.

    It costs $20 for a card to be PSA/DNA'ed assuming that PSA will clab a ceramic card. That is your best bet.

    I believe authentification of a Mantle auto will cost you $75 by PSA/DNA
    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.

    There is a flat rate of $20 for any auto card as far as I understand it.

    i did the PSA/DNA quick Opinion, and it came back "likely genuine" but that does not mean much if these cards came stamped witht he signature.

    I am trying to find someone that might have this card, and knows for sure.
