So there's that - this card was Hand Cut. Is this true of all? Are they all hand cut? This information doesn't seem to be on other flips though SGC only added the 4th text line recently.
Just trying to provide more info to the thread and enjoying it. And I know I've said it 5-6 times already, but I can't get over how young he looks! Can't get over it!!! |

It's not hand cut. Google Mickey Mantle and "horse" for a fun young Mantle picture.

Yes. They aren't hand cut. It's a mistake but an insignificant one, in my opinion.

I also am in the camp that does not believe this is a 1951 issue. However, I did recently pick one up. Ben, the person who sent yours in to be graded must have sent the one I picked up also. It is the same grade with a PSA number one off from yours.

I also want to add that it is interesting that the photo has been used elsewhere as well.
The first photo below is the Baseball Magazine "poster." It is listed in SCD as being issued in 1952. Given the date the photo was taken, it must have been in late 1952. Does any one else have one of these? I'm curious if they all have "Mickey" misspelled. Next is the photo included in the 1953 Yankees team photo set. Next is the photo used on the front of the Time Out magazine issued in July 1953. Next is the photo included in the 1955 Yankees "Action Photo" set. And lastly is the photo from an unknown source. Anyone know the source of this photo and when it was issued? Does anyone have any other examples of the photo being used for other purposes? Edited to add that there are two additional photos in the "everyday Mantle" thread. Chris and Mike have variations.
