The classic image of Mickey Mantle on his 1953 Topps issue is offered here and in rather appealing form. Gorgeous original colors and no scuffing to report, with a slightly dinged upper right corner and touches of wear at the three others. Card #82 at first look appears crease-free but upon closer inspection a very small crease can be spotted an inch up from the lower right corner and just a tad wider than the border. Subtle hints of once having been stored in a type of photo album are at the four corners of the reverse. We won't speculate how the pro graders will deem this beauty, but suffice to say that its new owner will be proud indeed. Statistics on the back reveal the Mick's numbers for his first full season in the bigs; 23 homers, 87 ribbies and a .311 average.
