Having just completed his amazing Triple Crown season and a World Series championship that earned him a unanimous nod for American League MVP, collectors waited with anticipation for the release of the '57 Topps set and a chance to acquire the newest Mickey Mantle card. Topps didn't disappoint, delivering one of the greatest sets ever produced with an innovative design that departed from the artist's renderings and put the players, including Mantle, directly on the field in real photos. Offered is the '57 Topps card of Mickey Mantle, graded PSA 8. Centered just a little toward the southeast quadrant with four staunch corners that easily reach or exceed the NM/MT level while the reverse is uncommonly strong, sporting a deep combination of red and blue tints that sharply convey Mantle's history making accomplishments. A very capable representation for this advanced grade.
