1963 Topps Mickey Mantle "insert" variations

Hi all

I just added these two 1963 Mickey Mantle "peel-offs" (some call them stick-ons) to my collection. They are 1-1/4 x 2-3/4 in. These stickers were added inserts to packs of 1963 Topps cards. There were 46 stickers to the set. These 2 were not purchased on Ebay.

The 2 variations are "instructions on back" (more scarce) and blank back.

I have been watching Mickey Mantle stuff on Ebay for sometime now, and i have not seen either one of these variations for auction.

Are the "instructions on back" variation that much harder to find ?

    Hi Lee,
    Sorry that I can not answer your question but I recently picked up several on ebay as single lots from the same seller. The following was the breakdown. WITH INSTRUCTIONS - Mantle, Aaron, Musial, F Robby, Yaz, and Drysdale. WITHOUT - Banks, Herbert, Stenhouse, and Hinton. These are all PSA gradeable with 8's probable. I also received several others from the same dealer that are not gradeable (unless I want 6's)which I cannot get to right now. I know this does not answer your question but thought I would let you know anyway. I hope they are more scarce since I got those big names with the instructions.
    Thanks,
    Bob
