Default Mantle cards

Posted By: Al

I went to the 64 series in St Louis and saw him...and Raris play ( who became a Cardinal in 67...I was there for that series too). Can not explain it either. More interesting to me is the fixation on the 52 Mantle ( although I have both variations of that card myself). It is not scarce in all kids of conditions, and yet sells, in great condition, for more that the 61 Dice, 67 Stand Up, and 67 Punch Out ( not to mention the 66), which are much rarer. The 52 Mantle is much to post war collectors as the Wagner is to pre war, even though much more available
