Graded VG+ 3.5 by PSA. Superb mid-grade 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle. One of card collecting's classics, Mantle's Topps rookie card is the key to the set, one of the most famous of all cards, and the single most popular and valuable baseball card, having recently claimed the title at $12.6 million in MINT+ condition. It has strong colors, a crisp image, outstanding centering, and light wear at the corners. The reverse is clean with bold printing. Downgraded largely due to several tiny surface imperfections on the front, including an unobtrusive horizontal surface scratch, perfectly positioned in the black frame beneath the nameplate. The 1952 Topps Mantle has long been recognized as one of the most iconic "blue chips" of all vintage baseball cards, and a glance at sales records shows that over the years it has consistently risen in value in all grades. This 1952 Topps Mantle presents a particularly significant collecting and investing opportunity as it is a particularly strong and attractive mid-grade example. Opening Bid $10.
