Jackson -
This is just a friendly welcome and advice. I see you are new to the board and maybe young or just starting out in this. Let me tell you something that I wished I started out with- if something is too good to be true, spend your money on lottery tickets...its a better gamble.
This one and the Mays you posted were worth less than a dollar. You could have maybe spent your money on a mid grade 60s mantle and had a nice card. Till you get the skills to buy the raw cards, stick to graded examples so you know what the real thing looks like.
The seller you bought this from sells only reprints and is currently listing an auto ruth, auto gehrig and a 52 mantle for a dollar. This is your sign friend, if anyone had those cards they would not be looking for a few dollars and stating they are ungraded so they are forced to sell as a reprint. If the seller states reprint anywhere...its a reprint. At least he was nice enough to hide the truth in plain sight. It's like adding a "please" to your bank robbery note to the teller.
Start slow and build friend. There are collectors that collect for 50 years and die without a 51 mantle, that's a expensive piece. Start with the late 60s and work backwards.
This is a friendly board (usually,lol) they will all help you learn and grow.
