The 1962 Post Canadian issue was much more scarce than its American counterpart due to the far more limited distribution in Canada. The cards were printed on the back of the cereal boxes and contain a full-color image of the player with biographical information printed in both English and French. The set contains several tough variations and the Mickey Mantle card was printed with three different variations. Presented here are all three of the different 1963 Post Canadian Mantle variations: The first and most scarce erroneously lists Mantle's 1961 hits total as 153. The second features the error corrected to 163 hits but has a slight variation in Mantle's biography; the word "in" appearing at the end of the first line of text. The third variation includes the correct 163 hit total bit the biographical copy is slightly more narrow pushing the word "in" to the beginning of the second line. A grade breakdown of the three cards is as follows: 1) "153 hits" variation: PSA NM 7 2) "163 hits " "in" on first line: PSA EX 5 3) "163 hits " "in" on second line: PSA EX+ 5.5 Interesting collection of Mickey Mantle cards with obscure variations for the true Mantle completist.
