Postwar Baseball - 1950s Cards

One of card collecting's classics, Mickey Mantle's #311 card is the key to the set, one of the most famous of all cards, and the single most popular and valuable baseball card, having recently claimed the title at $12.6 million in MINT+ condition. Graded POOR 1 by SGC, flaws include surface wear, creasing, a few pin holes, and a patch of paper loss on the reverse. Iconic cards such as the 1952 Topps Mantle always have tremendous interest to collectors in all grades. In fact, while lower-grade examples are naturally more affordable, it is precisely for this reason that lower-grade examples of important cards often have even more collectors interested in them! This card will be of enormous appeal to collectors looking to acquire a presentable yet comparatively affordable example of the most popular and desirable postwar card ever produced. Opening Bid $5,000.
