    Very cool indeed. My favorite is his 64 followed by his 56 issue.

    Thanks! Was thinking about slowly adding more classics and started here. Thought it presented real real nice for an 8.

    Nothing like a nice Mantle! Something about his name I think, you say Mickey Mantle and you just think about badeball's golden age. That's an awesome card!!

    Hey, that's my set! The Mick is a toughie to get. An 8 huh? Are his letters blurry? That would bug me. Killer centering!

    That is a beautiful card. 8 is already a high grade for a Mantle and this one definitely presents strongly. Adding a vintage Mantle is on my bucket list as a collector. If I can just work on reducing my impulse buying, I could probably save up for one. Congratulations on getting yours!

    Thanks, the letters are pretty sharp in person. Chose it bc of the nearly perfect t/be centering. I see a lot of 63s with a big top
    White border that just looks kinda meh to me
