Card value is not determined by supply or amount printed, demand is what determines the price. You can have a pop of 20 and only 19 people are chasing the card, prices will remain low and/or stable. Likewise, a card with a population of three or four figures with the masses chasing it in every grade will bring price escalation quite rapidly. 1952 Mantle is the ideal marketing card, heavy, heavy demand and ample supply.

Not loving the choices as one is readily available (likely 100 or more copies for sale in Chicago last week) and the other is a strip card. I'm not a huge strip card fan so I'd go with Mantle even though I don't love that card either.

I love wagners. Mickey is just an iconic card. But if collecting you can go to Nationals or any post thread and find an 52 mantle. The opposite can't be said for a UNC or Tip Top. Wagners a true collectors card. The mantles cool but not rare. you just need money to buy it. Wagners are a hunt and more of a personal collectors item.

I am a huge Wagner guy. I would take the Mantle over the W-UNC Wagner. I will leave it at that.
Pete, great Wagner. You have great taste. And now, another Wagner, which I refer to as the Flintsone Wagner because he looks like Fred Flintstone (or Barney Rubble or some other meat head).

1910 Tip Top Authentic is rounding 3rd at REA and at $23K! Hopefully a Net54'er wins this and becomes 1 of 64 owners to secure a graded copy.

Ryan, do you know what happened to the famous Reccius Wagner that we discussed here so long ago? Anyone else?

$30K hammer price! Wagner cards are on fire. More records to be smashed on these and lower pop Wagner portraits.
