Lot # 1045: 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle PSA FAIR 1.5

Graded FAIR 1.5 by PSA. One of card collecting's classics, Mickey Mantle's #311 Topps card is the key to the 1952 set, one of the most famous of all cards, and the single most popular and valuable postwar baseball card. This well-centered card has bold colors, outstanding registration, and honest corner wear. Horizontal creasing extending across the top portion of the card contributes to the assigned grade. In recent years, we have seen an ever-increasing appreciation for the exceptional value offered by cards such as this example. This card presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a visually appealing example of Mickey Mantle's most celebrated card in an extremely desirable condition, yet very possibly at a small fraction of the cost of a higher-grade example with the same eye appeal.
