I have never seen that card before. It is sweet. Is it his rookie?

There are a handful of different 1959 Oh's, not sure which is considered his "true rookie" but is definitely from his first year.

Same photographer?

Thank you for sharing.

Yes. Mantle actually just has glue residue plus a couple light wrinkles, probably from being un-stuck to an album. Teddy's got a little spot, pretty minor though, and otherwise a clean card.

Appreciate sellers that do that. Usually the seller wouldn't disclose that and say card is under graded with a fire emoji.

Outstanding Mantle! Also respect the seller of that ‘57 Hank. Not only did he disclose the crease, but went out of his way to showcase it for the sake of transparency. If you did not see the grade on the main pic, you’d think it was a 6+.

Here’s my newest addition:

Finally took the plunge. Sacrificed centering for clarity and surface.

It is a Hank Aaron card, condition is overrated! I know it gets a little overwhelming in here with the amazing high-grade vintage people post in here. However, these not so perfect cards still hold value and are fun to collect at a fraction of the price!

I think you should look for the 1972 In Action Aaron to go along with this card. They pair up extremely well!

Thank you! This is my first one. I mostly collect football but this is now one of my favorite cards I own.
