Huge day for me. I made the biggest trade of my life and walked away with an upgraded 52 Topps Mantle. The centering isn't perfect, but the surface is. Unbelievable color, clarity, and registration. I'm over the moon!

Thanks guys and yes John, it was one heck of a trade! More than I wanted to part with, but getting a Mantle 100% in trade with no cash is almost unheard of nowadays.

That's no joke. I've been asked if I would trade what I have for a 52 Mantle and the answer is YES. I can build that back! Totally unheard of and simply AWESOME. What a beauty...super jealous!!!

An impulse buy, as I ran across it early and knew the next person to see it would gobble it up. A '59 Killer with the exact same grade at almost the same price got snapped up recently, and its centering was real hard on the eyes, so when I saw this one (with the cool trifecta - a 1950's card, a Hall of Famer and a high number) I jumped at it. If this kind of centering is wrong, I don't wanna be right!
