I gotta side with my little bro on this one. Granted, his perspective is skewed since he has hooked up with quite a few famous actresses.

But in a few years, Kate Upton will not be looking like she is now, whereas the Mantle will always be beautiful!

And-- no question-- there are far more hot women on Kate's level than there are dead centered #311s walking around!

Beautiful women grow on trees and are far easier to obtain than a '52 Mantle that looks like that. Throw on a nice outfit and saddle up to a high end bar in any major city and something as good as Kate or better is guaranteed to walk by.

Can't ever recall taking home a '52 Mantle though

Greg---you must not be married

[MattyC]

Nope, he's not. Does have his first ever serious girlfriend though-- at 34.

I, however, am settled down.

Albeit with a Swedish model

No wife = Cool cards.


That explains A LOT! haha.

Behind every hot girl (Kate Upton) there is some dude tired of it. I am doubting I would ever get tired of 311....

Matt,

That truly is one in a million Mickey that I have seen probably for ever! Personally I am not a fan of graded/certified cards, but that to come out in that condition is really dynamite.
Just a truly great looking 52 Mantle. I applaud you!

Wanna say much thanks to all my boys here with whom I can share the Mick; we all here know how most of those in our daily spheres can't really get down with our cards and how much enjoyment they give us.

Now actually, I must come clean on one level; when I said "settle down" earlier, one of my buddies here interpreted that as me having a girlfriend but not being married. In fact, I do have a ball and chain. Actually trying to post a nice photo bucket shot of my better half here but the whole URL text string keeps coming through-- gonna fix that and find a way to share a scan of my gem mt 10 lady lol.

Congrats on the great pickups Matt.

[MattyC]

Thx, Chris. So have you tracked down the Dice Game '61 Mantle yet?! I was just doing some reading on that beast of a Mantle. Wonder what it would fetch in this surging market.

Haha, my understanding is that there are only two out there, and I believe they are both owned by board members. I am currently working on getting one of them to adopt me... I would imagine they would bring huge money now.
