I've had offgrade copies of this card with the same proportion centering s-s, and they were just dealbreakers. Other than that, very happy with the color, surface, and lack of print damage overall on this one.


Emphasis added. That exact thing (along with 1962s and 1968s) is covered in my next round of 'Collectorisms'...if I ever hunker down and start trying to finish it!!!

I would trade for that Mantle any day of the week. Frickin' awesome!!!!!!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
