    Great card and I am glad someone like Poppa J came on here and actually had the goods (also surprised no one said it was all fake).

    Mike,

    thanks for the kind words and an extremely smooth transaction.

    p.s. your card was signed in person by Mantle in 1992 in Cooperstown, NY.
    my son thought you might want to know that Mantle actually touched your card! image

    Hasn't he touched all the authentic ones?

    Hi Nick,

    Let's hope so! ... Actually Mantle took this card out of a case at Mickey's Place, signed it, and gave it to my son.

    Just about everything but this....image

    Currently, we're trying to work something out with a couple of the major auction houses.

    We've got a 40+ year sportscard and memorabilia collection that my dad and I started in the early 60's.

    Mike saw the Mantle card that we sent him, pictured in a thread that we posted on June 19th titled "Ideas on How to Unload a 40 Year Collection".

    Feel free to PM me with your "below VCP" prices on any of the 1952 Mantle cards (was it 11 of them you had?) you might be selling. image
