Graded MINT 9 by PSA. Hall of Famer. Among more than 5,600 copies recorded in PSA's census reporting, just fifty-five examples have been placed at a higher, unqualified tier. Presented is a spectacular Mickey Mantle card from the mid-1960's. One of the Yankee superstar's most popular collectibles of the period, this memento, with its superb right-handed batting pose illustration, is also among the most difficult of his cards to locate in investment-grade condition. The offered, brilliantly hued example displays four super-sharp corners, fabulous depth of color and flawless edge cuts. Centering, always a challenging obstacle in 1964 Topps, is uncharacteristically precise in this fully satisfying specimen. Here is a Mantle card that delivers truly remarkable quality along with enviable visual appeal. Mint condition.
