Lot #10 1951 Bowman # 253 Mickey Mantle RC Cond: PSA AA

The ultimate Rookie Card to so many collectors, these are so popular and desirable. An important card, this is Mickey Mantle's true Rookie Card. The offered card has some condition issues but has quality centering, no print issues and a nice image. The issue with the card is scrapbook removal, there are odd marks on the surface that can be seen upon close inspection. There are some minute scrapes in the borders by the lower left corner and some general wear. The back has no paper loss, but also shows evidence of scrapbook removal. Held in hand, this is not a bad looking card at all and will fill this vital hole in any Rookie Card or Mantle run without requiring a second mortgage!
