<< <i>As George Costanza said about the puffy shirt, "I wouldn't wipe my a__ with that thing". >>
I think it's a beauty!
I'm all for centered cards but the eye appeal on that card is as bad is it gets.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
Edited to add: Maybe they fished this card out of the crates of '52s that Sy sank in the early 60s.

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.
<< <i>I prefer my 1's to have pinholes >>
+1 when that's the only defect.

+1 to your +1. This card has SLIGHTLY more defects than a pinhole. Lol

Perhaps put directly into the spokes of his bike, then lost to a card flipping contest, then put in someone's jeans back pocket where mom washed the jeans in it with the card in it. Then in somebody's wallet for years.
I cant imagine paying $5,000 for it, but then again, at least its all still there.
<< <i>That should really be in an authentic holder. >>
Very good point. Clearly.
<< <i>I don't care who's pictured or how old the card is. That's a piece of crap. >>
Yeah...the idea that someone would rather have this than a PSA 9 Seaver rookie for the same money boggles my mind.
I like it, but with the numbers charrigan shared I would pass if I had the extra money to buy. $3500 to $4000 I'd be on it, and a proud owner.
<< <i>If only we knew the entire history of that card from the day it was opened by a kid in 1952.... >>
It must've been a rough journey for that Mantle, and I've also briefly wondered about the paths our cards might take to get into our collections.
That PSA 1 would be like the Keith Richards of the '52 Mick world -- it's been through hell, but ohhhh, the stories it could tell!
Personally, I'd have to see a back scan before I determine if it's a piece of crap or not.
I don't know what it is about high profile cards that are completely beat up but I love them. Even like a Michael Jordan rc, I own one in a BGS 7 but for some odd reason I'd like to also own one that's in poor condition and maybe In an authentic case. Maybe it's because it gives the card more character, and the fact that I'm on a limited budget lol.
