Should I get this Jay Publishing Mantle photo graded?

I don't know much about these. This one came in a pack with 12 other Yankees. I don't know if it is "Type 1" or "Type 2" or whatever.

    I don't really like how these "float" in a PSA holder, but noticed these (as with most things Mantle) are spendy. It's never a bad idea to slab an item of value.
    Nice addition to your collection!

    Thanks for the responses and input. Rick, you suggest that I not slab? Why? Because of condition (print mark at top left) or value? And, is the Memory Lane PSA 9 BIN price of $895 anywhere near reasonable? I thought that I probably had a $50-100 Mantle item on my hands.

    Judge,

    You may want to send a PM to cpettimd (Chris). I know he had a few of these graded by PSA. Good luck.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
