Just because the other cards look okay doesn't mean this one is.

The initial pic of a holdered card against a white back ground is always a warning sign. Also noted they had quite a few vintage card sales recently....so wondered what the story was.....

Not saying that at all . What I'm saying is he used a filter on the pics to hide blemishes and improve the color pop on the cards he has listed .

Fair enough. I didn't notice much in the way of colors on the other Mantles, which is why I was questioning you. The corners still raise some red flags for me.

for me a big piece of why it looks fake to me is the thickness of the black line on his bat. looks a lot thicker than other Mantle rookies

It also looks way to thick around his uniform.

Check out the Stargell rookie , Brock rookie , the goudey cards . They are all funky the seller is playing with the color and structure with a filter .


I personally I'm more curious about the jeter rookie psa 8 . I don't think those Scratches and scuffs are just on the holder.

And did you notice how almost all of his PSA cards are in old holders that are easy to tamper with. I wouldn't trust any of his cards.
