Graded NM 7 by GAI. Hall of Famer. This piece captures the great Yankee outfielder in his prime, and is a more-than-worthy tribute to the incomparable Mantle. The card presents beautifully, with remarkable intensity of color on both front and reverse. The exceptionally vivid overall cast of the piece is complemented by incredibly bright wood-tones in the borders and a pack-fresh appearance. The card is extremely well-centered and, unlike most '62 Mantles, this one has no print line in the bottom border. Tiny specks of wear at the card’s edges would likely require magnification to discern in any issue other than this solid-bordered Topps classic. Near Mint condition.
