Default oversize 1951 Mantle 253 card

I have an oversized 51 Mantle card that looks just like the small one. Any history of such a card ?
Thanks.

Default 1951

What are it's dimensions ? Regular stock ? Do you have scan of back ? Topps, which bought out Bowman, has done larger reprints, but it would be noted on back

Default oversized mantle card

Sorry, I'm no good at picture posts on here. I can send an email, dnmcduffie@yahoo.com, attachment of it and a regular sized Mantle card to compare.

I'm also a bit hesitant to post on these threads for these sorts of reasons. People get worked up too fast. I just want to have fun and fact find with other collectors. Not really interested in arguing whether my stuff is just cardboard, overproduced, fake or without value. Maybe I'll put that last sentence in all caps before my posts haha -

I understand the hesitation. We get our fair share of scammers coming on here and trying to sell counterfeit cards. That is why most point out fakes and get a little testy about people posting them. I personally love reprints and "custom" cards as long as they are listed as what they really are.
