Modestly graded 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. The offered example, graded POOR 1 by PSA, has characteristics one would expect to see in a slightly higher grade. It has vibrant colors, outstanding registration, and light wear at the corners. Graded POOR 1 by PSA due to two patches of surface damage and a small surface abrasion along Mantle's forehead. 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 card will undoubtedly be of enormous appeal to collectors looking to acquire a very pleasing, yet comparatively affordable, example of the most popular and desirable postwar card ever produced. Opening Bid $10.
