Default Mantle run complete
After a couple years of searching ebay and auction listings, and even making a couple of deals here on Net54, my Mantle run is finally complete. A special thanks to MattyC, who previously owned a few of these, and provided a lot of help and advice along the way.

I threw in a 58 Mantle/Aaron because that card has sentimental value.

In the mean time, my Mantle run is still perfect. I don't own all of them.

Beautiful collection, Jesse. But I need individual scans of all of them, please. It's not 4,000 Cansecos, but I think if any collection on the vintage side deserves individual scans, this is it. I'll have to live vicariously through you for a while longer.

Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful! Congrats Jessie.

Have ever considered selling the 52 Topps for a lesser grade only to upgrade some others?

Hate to be Debbie Downer, but have you thought about getting the variations of his Topps cards? The 1952 Topps can be found with the stitches on the ball on the back going in the opposite direction and has a few differences on the front, the 1956 can be found with a gray back or a white back, the 1957 supposedly can be found with the man walking in the background being airbrushed out in two varying degrees (I never could tell the difference though), and the 1969 can be found with white letters.

Thanks, most of them except for a couple early pickups do look great for the grade. Both 52s, 53t, 57, and 62 are dead centered. I will add individual scans one of these days.

Next up is probably selling a couple of other cards first, but yes I am still looking for a centered WL 69. Anywhere from a PSA 3-7 could work if it looks good.

The 52t is a 4, 51, 52b, and 53t are 5s. 54-58 are 6s except for the 56 which is an 8. The rest are mostly 7s with a couple of other 8s.

AVG GPA is 5.8. It's on the PSA registry and I plan to add individual scans as soon as I pick up a working scanner.
