A few recent Micks that I love.

First this Exhibit. What a value for an early picture of The Mick. And a great picture at that. He's got the world wide open for him in that shot.



Next is the best Mantle/Aaron I've ever had the pleasure of owning. The centering on this one is just bananas. Upgraded my 8 with this one. Wonder how many out of every hundred copies of this card is centered like this?



Won this 1966 at auction a little ways back. What blew me away was the lack of a slope to the bottom, and absence of the white print dot in the bottom red that plagues so many.



This 1962 is now one of my favorite cards, in great part because of how long it took me to find one with this combination of centering, registration, and edge wear. The white line on top can often be blurry.



Scooped up these two Mick/Berras also. Loved the focus and centering on each. Seems like this one is always blurry or OC or both.





This one had me real psyched; it beat all the 8s I'd looked at.



This Dan Dee was too good to pass up. Centered nicely and the wear somehow avoided his face.
