Default Any interest in a 1952 Topps Mantle?

Posted By: Mike Williams

Here's what I can tell you will some certainty....the card was deemed altered by Mastro. You apparently wanted a '52 Mantle, hence your purchase. You bought a seemingly stunning card, in a PRO holder. PRO (even then) was very suspect....why would anyone how holds a Nm/Mt '52 Topps Mantle have it graded by PRO???? You carried on in numerous posts (rightfully so) regarding your disappointment with the "facts" surrounding the card, and if I'm not mistaken, the mention of legal action was also mentioned. You are now telling us that the card is B I G....as compared to other '52 Topps cards. I don't doubt what you're saying but I'm confused why your new found respect for the card hasn't warranted a submission to a more reliable grading company. This way, you get your '52 Mantle....and it's in a holder you can live with. The issue isn't you selling the card, the issue is your perceived flip-flop and non-disclosure.
