Offered here is a 1958 Topps #150 Mickey Mantle PSA 8 NM-MT. Over the past few years, our hobby has enjoyed a surge in pricing and The Mick's issues have increased significantly, making each card, no matter the grade, a good investment. The 1958 Topps issues have held steady for the past few years at well over $10,000 and we see no end in sight. This issue offers an immaculate autumn orange background with crisp surfaces, a razor-sharp perimeter including four pinpoint corners, and relatively fine centering with slight partiality to the upper left corner. Superb and breathtaking Mickey Mantle from '58!
