Lot #15 1951 Bowman # 253 Mickey Mantle RC Cond: PSA 2

One of the ultimate baseball cards, these have understandably rocketed in price in recent years. One of the most vital of all Rookie Cards, this card is revered by collectors. The offered card is truly extraordinary for its grade. The card offers four square corners, OUTSTANDING CENTERING, bright white borders, great color and a gorgeous image. There is some very subtle paper creasing on the front this is not easy to see. The back has some fine scraping in spots but is not bad at all. This has the eye appeal of a PSA 6 or even a 7, this card should trade at a premium to other PSA 2s for this reason in our opinion. Great card, this was obtained in the 1980s by one of the hobby?s great collectors and has been in a binder for decades.
