Can't say that i've seen that one before. The usual '52 Mantle reprint selling on the Bay - that is, other than the authorized 1983 issue - has a back that is almost indistinguishable from the genuine card. But the one you have there is immediately recognizable as a reprint - Topps line on the back has a strange font, among other signs. Who knows when it was made, but if the owner did obtain it as a kid, how old is he now?
