    Crazy to think you could have bought one for under 50k just 7-8 years ago.

    Sweet smoke. That's sharp. That's also 63K in sales tax for a CA buyer.

    For that much scratch, it would pay to move out of state!

    My thoughts go back to around 1992.

    I was reading a monthly Beckett and someone bought a PSA 10 52T Mantle for $125,000.

    I thought that was an outrageous amount of money but what do I know.

  • That card looks super small in the holder. Anyone else see that?

    A 9? No way.
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    The last 9 sold for $220k in 2013. The last PSA 8 went for $49k last year. Just not a lot of them for sale in high grade, and I would guess MLI would take $450-500k for the card. At their asking price you could buy (3) 1952 Mantles in PSA 8.
  • Youzers, you could pick up a Mantle and a Honus for that.
