BEWARE: 1959 Home Run Derby Mantle BVG 8 is a reprint
There's a seller on eBay (rldavis21) who has been trying to pass off a reprinted 1959 Home Run Derby Mickey Mantle as the real thing. The card is currently in a BVG 8 holder. I do not know if Beckett really graded it or if the holder or image has been messed with. At any rate, here's the first time the card was auctioned:
