Default 53 bowman mantle

Bill,

I collect these and something does not look quite right. My first and most obvious question - which has been pointed out previously - is why he hasn't had such a high end card graded. I would like to hear his response.

The corners are extremely sharp for a card of this age and given the fact the main star card of this set is not graded is just plain odd?

The white borders also stick out like a sore thumb. There are just too many things that stick out for me to purchase if I were n your shoes.

They may all be real, but...I don't know. Something bugs me. The 61 mantle back isn't the right color green. And why would these not be graded? If they are legit, this seller is leaving a lot of money on the table. I'm all for raw cards, but I think I'd need to see these cards "in hand" to spend that much money.

If you click on their completed listings all three all graded cards yet all these nice cards are being offered raw. Could be very legit but raises a ?? to me.
