Mickey Mantle rates the key figure from a rarely seen set of 20 cards featuring Oklahoma natives printed on the back cover of Summer 1959's issue of "Oklahoma Today" magazine. While this set also features both Dean brothers, Carl Hubbell, Warren Spahn, the Waner brothers, and others, Mantle's compelling place in our hobby rises above them all.
Graded PSA AUTH for its hand-cut origin, this card features a strong image of Mickey batting from the right side. Its bright background and excellent registration show few, if any, defects, and this will fit in with cards of a high technical grade, thanks to those square borders and clean composition.
