Wanted: 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle PSA 1

[glchen]

Maybe someone who was VCP can help and check to see if the card is there. If
it were sold 2-3 years ago, it might be before ebay hid the buyer names. Not sure this will completely work since I think VCP only stores the front images of the card, and not the back.

You might also want to see if you can find the PSA serial number and see if it is on the registry.

I've looked at VCP and without the number, it's going to be hard to tell. The last time a PSA 1 sold was 2/21/10.

I can look through the 15 pictures (which don't have pictures of the backs). Do you remember any distinct creases (eg. upper right corner down to his nose, etc.) which might help?

thanks
the front was exmt -nrmt
no creases and centered
it was graded a PSA 1 because of the writing on the back and was graded before PSA gave grades for MK.
if i saw the pics id know it right away
thanks everyone for their help

This is the only one that seems in the general condition you describe.

10/6/07 eBay dingos8my3bay palluotto2006 23 $4,250.00

First name is the seller, second is the buyer, the number 23 is the number of bids and the final is selling price.

Everything else in VCP has creases and is in worse condition than you mention.

[iggyman]

Not to state the obvious and hopefully I don't depress or discourage you, but the possibility exist that the card was liberated and perhaps now resides in its original raw state, a different holder, or (GASP!) a different grade with the writing removed (darn M.D.'s).

Lovely Day...

I Found my Papa's 52 Mantle.
this past weekend i got a phone call from a buddy of mine that was viewing the current Huggins and Scott aution for Venz Mays.
and there it was in there auction.
the initials was S.A.T. not S.A.G. as i remembered
my mistake, but the PSA number was the same
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
Ricky, son of Huggins was very nice and i got to hold the card in my hand in Chantilly, VA
I will be bidding to try to get it back in the family, and put it next to the pafko in the safe.
they spend many years glued to the same page just now they'll be in my safe
hope i win it, but $ are always a problems these days. i'm sure ill have to pay more for it now than when my brother sold it back when my Papa passed away.
thanks for the very professionalism of the Huggins and Scott auction and Ricky.
and thanks to everyones help on net54
