1961 Topps #300 Mickey Mantle PSA 9 MINT
MINT MICK!!! What more can we say about the legendary Mickey Mantle that isn't already known throughout the memorabilia circuit. Due to the unequivocal prestige of his 1952 Topps rookie card, his remaining Topps issues continue to soar in popularity with this breathtaking 1961 Topps PSA 9 Mint only bested by a single specimen.

"Pack-Fresh" in every conceivable way, Mantle's extraordinary portrait image, bat over shoulder, depicts near-perfect registration and crystal clear focus, with the image extremely well-centered (virtually 50/50) between four super bright white borders. Sparkling hues ably project the world-class pose with Mickey's classic pinstripe uniform and iconic Yankee cap further elevating the brilliant illustration.

Scintillating corner tips, razor-sharp edges and an immaculate reverse complete this 60-year-old marvel that easily appears as if an avid young baseball fan has just pulled it from a 1961 Topps wax pack. Synonymous with Mantle's stratospheric home runs, this supreme offering would be a colossal addition to any sophisticated enthusiast's Mantle or 1961 Topps PSA Registered compilations!
