O/T: Who are the 3 owners of the 3 known PSA 10 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle cards?

No offense my friend but this is the PreWWII Forum and you are talking about 1952.

I'm not looking for a fight or an argument, but after reading this thread I went on to other threads in this prewar section and see that many of them are not about pre-war cards either. Why aren't you redirecting them too?

Because Adrian (hi Adrian) has a penchant for this type of issue. It's not isolated. I doubt anyone said anything (I could be wrong) the first or second time he did it. But we all love Adrian and it's not the end of the world.

And Adrian, Peter Garcia used to own one of the PSA 10s but not sure he does anymore.

He is a fairly young guy from San Antonio.....I have had really good conversations with him a few years ago but haven't spoken to him lately. I think his family owns some rental properties or apartments and he helps manage them, or something like that.

Thanks a lot Leon that really helps!!! I wonder if any of the 3 will ever come back up for sale....seems like they are all 3 in solid hands. I heard of one of them been offered 3$ million for his but refused the offer...have you heard of this? That would make it the most expensive card in the world if true!!

Adrian,

I want to formaly apologize to you for the comments that I made earlier in regards to posting a non PRE-WWII thread here in this section. In the future I will leave it up to the "brass" to give direction.

Since we are on the subject of 1952 Mantle and I know you love Mantle's; there is one Mantle that has a place in my heart. I wonder if you have one?

It is the 1965 Topps Push-Pull.

I thought this was a T206 forum?

Bingo parlors.
Peter isn't as active in cards as much as he used to be.

Didn't the Mantle glove that Billy Crystal bought turn out to be a fake, or am I thinking of something else?

[ullmandds]

how about a 52 topps mantle forum?

Something along those lines.

It was also discussed pretty extensively in The Card.
