Thx, fellas! I just know I'm gonna cave and seek out a nicely centered 1960 Topps Mick-- and the slope is slippery from there!

Absolutely stunning run brother. Can't wait to see them in person. That '57 is very sharp for the grade. I still think you need the 58 all star though. It's such a beauty.

Wow. I know everyone loves the older ones the most, but that 57 is spectacular. You just don't see that type of centering on that card, and it's clean. NICE. Thanks for posting!

Matty---
Well done, bro, well done. Your selection shows you not only sought good centering, but superb picture registration. I simply love your 52, 53, and 56 Topps. Your 54 Bowman is such a honey with that crisp focus. Love 'em! Stay good and picky for a good 60, one of my all-time favorites. Again, impressive Mickey Mantle collection run. ![]() |

So......This is not my money, so its easy to make this next comment, but I have been thinking about it, and think you need to complete the entire run. You love Mantle, and have knocked out all the difficult and terribly expensive cards. There are not many people out there that can say they have every base card for Mantle.

i tried that myself..it got too expensive..If i had to re-do it..i would of only went for the major cards. Thats one of the reasons i been selling off my other base cards and stuff over the past several months.
If there was one thing i had to re-do..was going for the 1963 plaque/mask i was gonna win in auction. It was a rare piece and unique in every way...but spending over 5k on it was a deciding factor to save up for the 52 #311 RC...worth it? everyday
