Hello all! I picked up these today from a guy that works with my dad. His father passed away recently and they were in a safe deposit box in an envelope. I am planning to get them graded soon and was wondering what you all think? Thanks in advance!

    image Nice low-mid grade condition cards. The Leader card looks to be the nicest of the group.

    Great centering on 1962 #200. I am guessing a PSA 5.

    Ditto. Centering is right on.

    Look like 4's and 5's except the leaders which is maybe a 7 or better. Nice!
    2.5 is pretty much my speed.

    I am thinking 4.5 on the 1962 Mantle. It has good honest corner wear, and the centering will give it the half point bump.

    Thanks everyone for the thoughts & opinions! Yea I totally agree that the centering is fantastic. I was thinking it would probably get the 4-5 range so I'm glad you all agree.

    I think everyone has it right - Decent cards, definitely worth sending to PSA.

    Can't really go wrong with Mickey Mantle cards.

    Nice cards.

    The Managers Dream card also shows Banks, Aaron and Howard.

    Man, I hate to have to be Mr. Stickler, but it's not Banks (who wore # 14). That is actually Dodgers catcher John Roseboro.

    Knowing is half the battle!
