(LOT 298)
1953 Bowman Color #44 Berra/Bauer/Mantle PSA 8 NM-MT
MANTLE, BERRA, BAUER!!! It comes as little surprise that the renowned Bowman Gum Co. would place Yogi Berra, Hank Bauer and the immortal Mickey Mantle all on a single card in 1953, for it was these three sluggers that led the Yankees to four consecutive championships entering the 1953 campaign. Of course, the Yankees would extend that streak to five consecutive titles, once again besting their archrival Dodgers in the '53 fall classic. These three Yankee legends would combine for 257 RBIs during the season, spearheading the Bronx Bombers to a pennant-winning 99 wins and their unprecedented fifth consecutive championship. Offered here is that highly coveted cardboard memento in a spectacular PSA 8 holder, with the assessment based on an abundance of factory-issued attributes including immaculate surfaces, crystal-clear clarity, rich hues, pinpoint corners and a well-centered image only modestly favoring the right edge. A keeper for sure!
