1967 Topps #150 Mickey Mantle PSA 9 MINT - Only 2 PSA Examples Graded Higher!
COMMERCE COMET MARVEL!!! Mickey Mantle's iconic 1967 Topps #150 subject is presented here in an outstanding PSA MINT 9 holder. Bested by a mere two PSA encapsulated copies, its breathtaking aesthetics place it as one of the premier '67 Topps Mantle cards extant! As collectors truly realize, it's an excruciating task to find a 1967 Topps #150 Mantle subject with excellent centering and no tilt, with most of the existing 1967 Topps Mantles (as well as any 1967 Topps subject) revealing skewed images. Atypically, this miraculous 57-year-old masterpiece boasts fine positioning and virtually no tilt, only exhibiting a slight partiality towards the upper edge. The continuous soaring price tags of Mickey Mantle baseball cards steamroll ahead, with hobbyists continuously seeking The Mick's finest cardboard mementos. One look at this museum-worthy masterpiece easily places it in that aforementioned pinnacle category. Mickey's good-natured smile literally jumps off the card, ably assisted by a brilliant array of rich hues and a brilliant powder blue background. The classic image is situated between four blinding white borders, and the razor-sharp corners and pack-fresh surfaces are the final superlatives justifying the world-class grade!
