1956 Topps Mickey Mantle Gray Back #135 Ends July 15th at 9 PM CST Starts at $1!

[Golfcollector]

Offered here is Lot 3 of my auctions ending on July 15th at 9 PM CST

1956 was a magical year for the "Commerce Comet". Mantle had a self procalimed "favorite summer" and it was indeed a breakout year after five years playing for the infamous Bronx baseball club.

Mantle most assuredly had one of the most statistical laden seasons of his era, hitting a robust .353 while belting 52 home runs and raking in 130 runners to home plate. The meteoric numbers provided him not only the American League MVP award in 1956, but also the coveted triple crown.

The 1956 Topps Mantle card is highly regarded by collectors on many counts. In addition to being a striking card with an exceptional design, this card dates from Mantle's Triple Crown season. Many consider this to be the quintessential Mantle card.

Presented herein is a non superb - low end example of the gray-back variety of this classic Mickey Mantle card. Quite possibly one of the roughest examples Extant! Rounded Corners, several creases rough edges.

While not professionally graded by any authentication company, we are confident this would receive the "MK" designation due to the pencil scratching across the name of Mickey Mantle in the upper left hand portion of the card. most likely a reflection of some young collector from yester-year and his dislike of The Mick.
