Anyone know who actually owns one of these '52 Mantles?
Just for fun, how much do you think it would go for at auction?
6 figures? 7 figures? ???

Marshall definitely still owns one. I thought Candiotti owned one as well, although he may not any longer. And I don't recall off the top of my head where the third PSA 10 is. I'm not sure whose is whose...

Mint is mint .
I can see that from across the street .
Might be the nicest one I have ever seen though .
Wild guess , I'm sure someone out there would pay over 300 K for that one .
It completely blows me away that you can almost buy a house for a card of that quality.
I would have a really hard time letting that go though even for 500K
But that's just me . . . . Cash comes back , you might never see that card ever again , plus it might go to some snot nosed spoiled rotten kid who's old man got 10 more dollars than God .
Those are the things I fear , I don't know why I can't help thinking about that . . . . It getting destroyed < SHIVER >
Did you ever read that article in the SMR about some little 12 year olds card collection. He had 100s of PSA 7-8 T206s and he was talking about his favorite card that he bought. It was a T3 1911 Ty Cobb PSA 8, Sold for about 75,000.00. He said I paid a little to high for it but I really wanted the card. YOUR FREAKING 12. You paid a little high for it. Or you just dont know what money is??!! And how to make it!

I didn't look in the registry, just made a wild guess on who owned the one that is pictured.
<< <i>Funny you say that about going to a spoiled kid.

Never saw that Mr. HandyMan, but I can definitley see it .
That's the way it goes though for daddy Warbucks children though, nothing wrong with that either . . . . just as long as they know how to care for it , I'm sure many only think of it as just a lousy piece of cardboard and that would be a shame , the world could lose that gem forever and ever and that would be bordeline criminal .
Having said that though . . . .I'm sure many who hold those 8's and 9's wouldn't mind as far as resale , wouldn't a confirmed destruction of one of those puppies raise the value of the rest ?

Edited to add:
What even made me think that ??
I know there are some hard core Mantle fans out there ,
I don't wanna get met in a dark ally and get my legs clipped
I guess it all stems from the time I was offered a lot of money from a MAJOR Red Sox fan to take 1 shot at my baseball with a baseball bat !
Come to think of it . . . are you out there dude ?
If you are , I think that scarred me for life , but it's all good , I bet you're not alone either .

That card gets my house plus I'll throw in my 72 Datsun 240 Z (just a poor boy here).

ALMOST??? Maybe in SoCal. 300K in KC could get you a nice 3,000 sf crib.

I live in KC as well and I could have purchased two homes like mine and still have money left for a nice '52 Mantle.

the last psa 9 sold for $282,000 so a ten has to be over $500,000. probably alot higher. those who have them, certainly do not need the money and may never sell then. so we may never see a sale in our lifetimes.
Right now it is livin and breathin in grandmas attic somewhere . . .
A Perfect 10 !
Get on it !
What a pipe dream that is . . . .
As we speak as a matter of fact .
It's just . . . . who's gramma's it at ?
She's just packin up all her stuff , ready to move into :The Villages :
To live that millionaires lifestyle and she's about to throw 4 wine cases full of baseball and football cards out onto the curb dating back to 1909 for the baseball and 1948 for the football .
The garbage man is in a hurry he don't catch it , Maybe if we're lucky some scrap collector finds them and saves them from their fate .
