Graded 20 Fair 1.5 by SGC. The offered 1951 Bowman Baseball #253 Mickey Mantle "true" rookie card is a prime value pick. This high number and instantly recognizable debut features bright and clean color accents. Despite factory errant centering and moderate/corner edge wear, this "Commerce Comet" has escaped significant handling. The reverse which touts Mantle's future has sustained paper loss associated with its overall grade.
