December 1, 2016: Sports & Americana Auction

Offered is a compelling example of one of the most important rookie cards extant, Mickey Mantle’s attractive 1951 Bowman Rookie, the horizontal masterpiece that is, of course, the key to the fabled 1951 Bowman issue and a hallmark item for any serious Mickey Mantle collector. This one presents nicer, but has a crease running through the middle of the card and running border to border. This is a great chance to pick up an affordable Mantle rookie, with nice overall eye appeal and arriving in a PSA Authentic holder.
