Looks good to me, from the front. Too off-centered to be trimmed for grade purposes, IMO. What's the back look like?

Default Card looks real
Can't comment as to possible alteration out of hand.

Yep, real card. I think the slope at the top is factory miscut, rather than trimmed.

Looks real from afar. I have one very similar to it.

And while we're on the subject, I think this is the best Mickey Mantle card of them all. Just a beautiful card, and just my opinion.

Unfortunately, I sold all of my Mantle's back in 2013 and I am regretting it. This is my first card of Mickey that I bought since I recently started collecting again.

I pretty much just collect raw stuff. I have had only one card in my life graded and that was at the national quite a few years ago.

The 60 Mantle is indeed a very nice and underrated card. Layout and alternating colors present well.

When I got the B o k s R b n o n, it took me while to figure out it was Brooks Robinson and I didn't have a cocktail yet....
