Graded EX 5 by PSA. Very attractive mid-grade example of this early 1950s issue featuring New York Yankees Hall of Famer Mickey Mantle. This card is very similar in appearance to his rookie card, the 1951 Bowman #253. Mantle is the key card in the 1952 Berk Ross set. This example has beautiful colors and strong corners with light touches of wear. Clean reverse with bold black text. This is a high-quality example of one of the earliest and most overlooked of all Mantle cards. In addition to dating from his rookie era and having a very similar appearance to his 1951 Bowman card, the 1952 Berk Ross Mantle is without question significantly rarer than its 1951 Bowman counterpart.
