The others not confirmed to exist? I agree

[quitcrab]

How many Mascot dog food cards out there? One known example????
Have anymore been discovered ?

[sflayank]

mascot
1 roberts
2 berra
1 mantle

[quitcrab]

Sounds like a easy set to complete ! 3 cards ! 😀. Thanks for the info in mascot dog food.
How many full 1964 Bazooka Stamp panels and 68 Full Topps action stickers panels of Mantle do you think exist? I would think the number is under 500 but who knows ?

[sflayank]

Way less than 500

I wish I’d seen this before I traded my mint Mission Soda away.... it was a cool item but I always assumed it was more common.

Chris, check out what Matt did with his... Happy with my missing corner example 10 are graded at psa, so i would guess more exist.

I like that a lot. I traded mine for a Holiday Inn postcard—it is one of only three I’ve seen in years of collecting and I wanted to complete that run. The Mission Soda premium is a great item though and I miss it.

That's pretty interesting Ben. What's the top part made of - is it a painting? Also, he put two graded copies in the one display?

I would say more than 10 exist. I have an ungraded copy.

What about the '68 Venezuelan? I haven't seen very many of those. Are these only items that PSA grades and has as part of the Mantle registry? I don't see the late 60s Country Cookin' premium on the list. I don't see many of those but I would bet there are more than 10. Also, the '51 self-promotion card that K. Eisenhauer says Mantle had printed up to pass out. Another item hardly seen. Probably more than 10. Other than the Mission Soda, I really couldn't argue with what Howard said.

For the promo, I believe, when I purchased mine, that Kelly had 5-6 of them. I think I got 3 of them (sold one to Chris and not sure who I sold the other duplicate to—you?). I think the other 2 went to another collector. Other than those 5-6, the only one I am aware of is the one PSA shows on their site with the 1951 signature. I still kick myself for not buying that as one of us should have gotten it.

[Bestdj777]

The 68 Venezuelan has 23 graded by PSA, although that seems high. I’d bet there are less than 5 of the 59 cream back ones though-I’ve only seen two.

Chris, I got my Mantle promo cards from KE. I got 2 from him and I remember having a chance to select which 2. Looking back at emails, I apparently bought one from him, then bought another a year or so later. I can't find emails for the first one, but for the second one he sent a picture showing 5 of the promos with 2 of them marked as sold. I bought 1 of the 3 remaining ones.

Wow, I am surprised is shows 23 graded '68 Venezuelans. I didn't realize there were that many floating around.

Of those - 14 are graded 2 or less and 25 is just not that many to go around between Venezuelan collectors and Mantle collectors - so you don't see them very often! Grateful to have one of the 4's for a long time now. Pretty sure I won it in a Mr Mint auction - a lot with 3 Venezuelans (64,67 and 68?) and a 66 and 67 O Pee Chee.
The 59 cream backs are crazy hard!

Top part is cut baseball cards that Tim Carroll crafts into works of art.

Here are a couple of other Micks that Matt has with the actual cards. Pretty cool imo.

[Bestdj777]

That’s insane. I love it.

Those are fantastic! I have absolutely zero artistic skills.

It's also pretty neat to actually see a Yamakatsu card.
