After having to sell my collection off about a year and a half ago, I'm happy to finally be able to start over!

Doug, that is a very nice "2"! Do you plan on selling off this half of your collection? LMK!

Hopefully I won't have to sell this one anytime soon, but my luck hasn't been the best over the years. This is actually the nicest '52 Topps Mantle that I've owned. It's in slightly better condition than the PSA 4 that I had several years ago so either PSA has started grading more strictly during my time off or the seller just got a tough break on the grade.

The only thing I could really see that knocked it down is some light wax on the back. I added a back scan to my original post so you can take a look. It's very light and tough to even notice unless you are looking for it. I had a PSA 5 '52 Topps Mays that had worse wax staining on the back and it wasn't in much better shape than this card.

EBay, Derek. The seller did not know it was from 1974, $9.99

Very nice re-entry card Doug. If you have the means, why not come back to the hobby with a bang!

That '52 Topps Mantle is gorgeous. Count me as one of the ones shocked that it got a 2, even with that stain on the back.
