Do you believe there are any undervalued Mantle items?

Hey Lou, Chris just informed me it's now 392 / 399; he's added Brian's nifty, small portrait card of a very young Commerce Comet to his already vast holdings! Quite a nice score; perhaps he will offer up Stan The Man for a fair price and recoup a hunk of his original purchase.

First, however, it would be beneficial to everyone if somehow he was able to identify the source of these 2 black 'n white pearls. It would seem they were part of a product package for an item the two baseball stars were endorsing.

Be that as it may, the image of Mickey is unique; I don't recall ever seeing it.

Again, nice pick-up Chris. Also, if I may say so, a very impressive, swift Bengal Tiger kill on your part, my friend. You wasted not a second to pounce on this hunka Mantle meat!

Kudos, my friend. ---Brian Powell

Thats awesome Bestdj777 to grab those, i tried to research those, I remember seeing it before, like it was from a board game or something i thought at first. Still very cool.
Meanwhile, i picked up the 80's Ripken Orange card and got it today.

Haha, thank you. I have been fortunate to pick up a number of Mantles over the years. I am currently at 397 unique items (445 total), with 5 more on my want list. It is a moving target though as I occasionally seeing things I never knew existed. Brian's card was one of those examples. Fortunately, we were able to work out a deal that was fair for both of us--he made a decent profit off of it (as he should have given that it was an awesome piece and worth more to me than what he had paid for it) and I added a card to my collection that I thought would fit nicely. My initial inclination is that it was cut from a box or magazine of some kind, but I have not been able to confirm. I hope to be able to track it down more once I have it in hand. I only purchased the Mantle, so I will be sharing any information with Brian on the other and that will hopefully allow him to bank some money on that one (or keep an awesome card in his collection).

All of his cards are overvalued, especially the double printed 52 Topps!!!

The card should be twice as cheap!

I think the 1958 All Star Mantle is undervalued compared to his other fifties cards.
