1959 Bazooka Mantle/Aaron
 
Thought you guys might appreciate these beauties. Theres only 12 Mantles graded higher than a PSA 1 and none higher than a seven.
How well do you think these would grade? Psa 2 would be my guess

I think they will grade ”A” authentic because of the missing dotted lines.

Agreed; both get AUTHs because they're missing their borders.

That's something I never thought about since its hand cut, does missing lines automatically make it "A" or can you still get a higher grade with a MC

They usually go “A”.
I have seen a few panels with a number grade that had like 90 percent of the dotted lines on all four side

That Mantle photo is simply majestic. Would have been cool to see it used on a Topps card.

Read their page:

Click on the + button down at the "Grading of Hand-Cut Cards" section.

In order for PSA to actually assign a grade to any of the cards that possess visible/defined borders on all four sides, evidence of that border must be present or the card must exhibit virtually-full borders based on the design of the specific issue. If the cut exceeds the visible border for the card in question, PSA will encapsulate the card as "Authentic" only. If the card is severely undersized and suffers in overall eye appeal, the graders may deem the card not suitable for authentication or reject the card as minimum-sized altogether.

Bazooka is made by Topps. Also used on the HR Derby card, right?

thats a cool set..used to be under the impression that the 59 Bazooka cards were much larger then they really are

As stated above, PSA will definitely grade your cards "Authentic".
You MIGHT get a number grade from SGC.
Don't know about Beckett as I've never used them.
