Low grade but the centering, full photo, youthfulness and wrinkle/snow/crease-free surface make it my favorite.
This one is screaming up the charts (for me).

Maybe either the refractor or the rookie ticket would be my favorite football card.

I like that card too! I think it is Mantle’s best looking card….no distracting graphics, youthfulness of Mantle and a nearly full-body shot of Mantle’s follow through swing in full color with gorgeous blue sky as a backdrop!

Wow, that is one of the coolest cards I've ever seen. An 8.5 is an awesome grade but for that may have been strict.
Lost it once, was sick, depressed and disappointed for a long time after GIven another chance years later and It's here for the rest of my life!
