Presented is a large group of mostly Post Cereal cards from 1961-63, along with about a dozen Jello cards, with the majority of the group subjected to the kind of less-than-perfect scissoring that was fairly typical of the efforts of a generation of youngsters. The group includes a pair of Mickey Mantle cards and a Roger Maris, along with a partial set from 1962 Post; as noted, the cutting is less than ideal, presenting essentially Fair to Good but likely deemed “Authentic” overall. A 1961 Post Cereal No. 4 Mantle is in a PSA Authentic holder and a 1963 Post No. 16 Maris is assessed PSA 2. The second Mantle is a 1963 Jello; the balance (12) of the Jello cards are from 1962. Here’s the breakdown: 1961 Post Cereal (60) – No. 4 Mantle – PSA Authentic, 25 Minoso, 80 Wilhelm, 88 Herzog, 107 Aaron, 111 Schoendienst (Poor), 145 Mays, 160 Drysdale (Poor), 167 Snider and 196 Santo; 1962 Post Cereal Partial Set (162/200) – missing numbers: No. 11, 26, 31, 36, 37, 38, 44, 45, 46, 47, 54, 57, 69, 78, 82, 83, 90, 92, 101, 113, 116, 125, 126, 127, 131, 134, 139, 140, 154, 158, 159, 169, 172, 174, 178, 186, 195 and 198; 1963 Post Cereal (31); and 1962 and 1963 Jello (13) – 1963 Jello Mantle and the balance from 1962.
