Mickey Mantle's "True" Rookie Card! Graded EX-MT 6 by PSA. While the offered 1951 Bowman Baseball #253 Mickey Mantle rookie may be "eye candy" for a host of prospective bidders, this strong high number will be placed into the advanced collection of only one victor. Seize the opportunity to place a strong bid for this instantly recognizable cornerstone which pre-dates the Topps debut by a full season! This bright centerpiece displays only touched corners, relatively crisp edges and accurate centering. The horizontal batting image features a lovely clouded stadium setting and displays perfect registration. Unlike so many from the 1951 Bowman singles, this particular example is absent of reverse wax staining. A premier modern card that will certainly attract significant bidding interest!
