This is a MINT CONDITION COMMEMORATIVE Mickey Mantle that Topps issued the year after he died. Few names in sports are as internationally famous as Mickey Mantle. A 16-time (!!) All Star, 7-time World Series Champion, 3-time AL MVP, Triple Crown Winner, and first ballot Hall of Famer, Mantle was one of the greatest athletes of all time. This COMMEMORATIVE card has been professionally graded by CGC as a 9, indicating MINT condition. Also, and it feels silly saying this, but this is NOT a Mantle card from his playing years (1951 - 1968), so please do not buy this thinking that it is. Lastly, the spelling mistake of "Commemorative" is CGC's fault, not mine, so please do not think this card or slab is altered in any way; CGC simply sent it to me misspelled.
