Graded EX 5 by PSA. Very attractive mid-grade example of New York Yankees Hall of Famer Mickey Mantle's true rookie card. One of card collecting's great classics, Mantle's Bowman rookie card is the key to the 1951 set and one of the most popular and significant of all postwar baseball cards. The offered card has beautiful colors, a focused image, and light corner wear. Extremely clean with no distracting print lines that are commonly found with this card. Boldly printed reverse without even the slightest trace of the gum or wax staining that so frequently affects 1951 Bowmans. A strong mid-grade example of this legendary card. Opening Bid $10.
