It didnt sell the 1st time i see..but now sine the re-list..theres 2 bids.
I looked at his 'other items' He selling many 'raw' common cards.
I wonder how this card got this way? Was it stuck in a album and the seller ripped it out??
Defintly could use some better pics, hate the cropping job. Maybe a different background color? and cant pass on the 1.95 s/h

You think it is real Chris? If so, I would have to say it is worth the opening bid. A beat Mantle is still a Mantle.

I'm no expert on fakes, and don't have one of my own to compare to, but doesn't a genuine Mantle have a red (not black) star to the left of the bio paragraph?

Its Fake..of course. (front is Var A is shown)
Yep, its suppose to have a RED star.
Other indications:
1. The stitiching on the ball is too thick and point left direction
2. Dimaggio's is suppose to line-up under the H (in right)
3. The red category section-- all to be BOLD red lettering
4. on the front-- just look at the dark spots surrounding the Hat
and it goes on...

Already reported item as FAKE
