Default Is this a 1952 Topps Mantle?

If you wanted a 1952 Topps Mantle, would you count this card? Would love everyone’s thoughts.

I am personally on the fence. All I collect is Mantle cards for the most part and, when I get the chance, I buy miscut cards so long as they include part of a Mantle card. So, I’d buy this card for the sliver of Mantle and the fit in my collection and consider it an addition to my Mantle collection. But would buying this really add an extra 1952 Topps Mantle to my collection?

This is all just thinking out loud. I don’t own the card, I couldn’t afford it even if it were for sale, and I don’t want to detract from what it is for whoever owns it—it’s one of these coolest miscut cards of all time and is fantastic for what it is.
