This Mickey Mantle Post Cereal single is well cut, with border visible on each edge, and follows the furious competition he and Roger Maris waged in 1961 to surpass Babe Ruth's mark of 60 home run in a single season. A similar card for Maris is also offered in this auction.

The PSA VG-EX 4 grade reflects one notched corner, better seen from the reverse, and is otherwise a clean and strong example suitable for any mid-grade set or Hall of Fame collection. These Post Cereal cards remain the most accessible Mickey Mantle card of his active era.
