Al- i iddidnt even know this. What is/are the 2 differences? I am currently trying to find info. Something tells me it has to do with the thingy on the arm.
I have read about a Candian version and also about how some backs are flip up-side-down

Most reprints use the picture on the right but the 2003 Topps Heritage Certified Autograph Issue uses the card on the left. |

Just completed my standard Mick run- Bowman and Topps 1951-1969 (excluding all Topps' specialty ones- AS, MVP, etc.). I may venture out into the dog food trading card world eventually (so many examples available!), but for now mission (spanning 1994-2014) is complete.
1954 Bowman Mickey Mantle.jpg I also personally concur to the previously mentioned scarcity of well centered Micks, as only 1 of 26 (including a couple dupes and a couple AS/MVP examples) is 50/50 centered- 1967 Topps. I think this probably applies to most other cards/players from these years too. I'm personally not bugged by OC cards, especially when looks good to me otherwise, but it does seem pricing for centered examples is skyrocketing. Makes me wish I'd gotten lucky on at least one or two more of the prior 26, not as much for personal taste, but so I could sell it for big bucks and buy a clean OC example and then some ![]() BTW- love the Bird!

Congrats on finishing the Mick run. That 54 is sweet looking. A little OC has never bothered me. Especially with vintage.
