(LOT 348)
1953 Bowman Color #59 Mickey Mantle PSA 7 NM
MIGHTY MICK!!! It is no secret that the immortal Mickey Mantle rules the Post-WWII card market, primarily due to the mystique of his iconic 1952 Topps card as well as his unparalleled power. The "Mick" was the quintessential idol for millions of young aspiring American boys, and his supernatural tape-measure home runs as well as his unfathomable string of championships all justify why his cardboard stature continues to escalate at an infinite level.
His Cooperstown worthy batting image portrays nice contrast, impeccable clarity, and vivid hues as the Goliath-like switch-hitter completes his mighty right-handed swing. A super eye pleasing powder blue background, super-clean borders and pinpoint corners consistent with the grade complete this 69-year-old card.
