1952 Bowman Mickey Mantle #101

Special card. It can be tough for the auto to stand out on this card with the facsimile signature but this one does. Attractive centering, wonderful example.

Mick has some white stubble on his jaw, but the centering and bold auto that works with the cap win me over.

Great card and auto pairing which spikes the eye appeal for me. Just what looks like a bit of surface wear around his face which keeps it from the A tier.

nice big and bold autograph really makes the card. The color of the card is good but not as good as many I have seen and the surface wear on the face holds it back. Borders are small but centering is ok

Nicely framed with a bold auto. A bit of surface wear around the face area holds it back.

Strong eye appeal for signed vintage right here; the image is focused and centered, with a bold auto on a card where the auto can easily "get eaten" by the artwork. Scuffing around the face is the primary dampener.
