1962 Topps Mickey Mantle #200

EyeBot likes referring to himself in the third person, like Rickey Henderson. EyeBot detects flaws that are assigned gentle weight, as they impact my aesthetic sensor with grace rather than screaming for attention. Well chosen, my human friend.

Centering is everything to me on a 62 Topps, and this card has GT front centering. The corner and edge wear do not really distract me, but the image seems a bit washed out. Fantastic copy.

Wow. Nice looking card with nice image and details. Centering is good enough. The borders have edge and corner chips but great piece to have and enjoy

Outside of the minor chipping, everything else looks amazing. Image looks great and the centering is as good as it gets.

The 1962 Topps Mantle #200 is a personal favorite card and one I know very, very well. I have owned many copies from 1s to 8.5s over the last two decades. With that said, this is one of the hardest Micks to find with even a modicum of eye appeal. The centering here is amazing. The side and top edges are also great. Corners exhibit touches, which naturally affects eye appeal a bit. The bottom border features the "black line," which many high numerical grade copies have tragically had trimmed. This copy cracks into my top tier and reminds me of my own as well. Although mine had its back mauled LOL.
