The official Mickey Mantle Pickup Thread. All Mick, all the time!

[BLongley]

That April PSA 6 was mine.... I see that PSA 9 in PWCC, that's crazy if someone really got it that cheap!!

BTW, I know you're working on the Mantle Master Registry, I used to be #4 in both the Mantle Master and Mantle Topps Master, but I have sold off a lot of my collection to venture into prewar. I still have quite a few tough items (some of the tattoos, Bazooka cuts, the rare team photos, etc... plus I'm auctioning the rest of my VZs in LOTG, which includes my 68VZ which is tougher to find than the 59VZ) if you're ever interested, most are listed under eBay user robecsportscards, so let me know if there are any you want to try and work a deal on.

I've been quite impressed with the raw finds you have then submitted!!! Well done!!

Weird sales on this card. A 6 sells for $200 May of 2017, another sells for $245 in April. Then a month ago, PWCC auctions a 9 which only achieves $102. PWCC listing doesn't mention Mickey Mantle in title or text. Heck of a steal for the winner of that one.
I put in a placeholder bid to keep it on my eBay homepage, but would have bid much higher if I didn't already have one at PSA (it got an 8). PWCC really screwed the pooch by not listing "Mantle," but I've heard the consignor gets to see drafts of the listings and confirm what they look like.
