I just received this Red Heart Mantle today. I am seriously thinking about doing the set. This Mantle card has always been my favorite Mantle card. I had one but sold it, along with most of my other Mantles 10 or so years ago when I got out of collecting.

    James,

    That is a sharp Red Heart. Good luck if you pursue the set.

    Love the Red Heart cards! I only have one (Spahn) and it's a beater, but easily one of my favorite vintage cards in the collection. I hope you do pursue the set and that you post your pickups as you get them.

    jfkheat, A great pickup. That is a strong looking PSA 6. I have been looking to pick one up myself. Congrats.

    Thanks for all the nice comments. The challenge with doing this set is finding cards that are centered. This Mantle is about as much off centered as I would want for any card in a set. I'll probably upgrade this one to a better centered PSA 7 if I find one at a reasonable price. If I do decide to do the set I'll start another thread and update it when I get new cards.

    I already added another Red Heart card to the collection but I'm out of town for a couple more days. I'll show the second card when I get back home.
