Mickey Mantle’s Game-Used 1956 Triple Crown Home Jersey, 1922 Game-Used Ty Cobb Bat PSA/DNA GU10 from .401 Season and 1952 Topps #311 Mantle PSA 8 Lead Loaded Mile High Card Company January Auction

Castle Rock, CO.- After the amazing results of “The Event” in October, many hobbyists have been asking, “What can Mile High Card Company possibly do for an encore?” Well now we have the answer; present an auction that’s even bigger and better! There’s not a T206 Wagner this time around but there are a large variety of offerings that both world-class card and memorabilia collectors will be seeing for the first time in decades or are simple fresh to the hobby. A game-used Mickey Mantle jersey, worn during the first half of his Triple Crown 1956 season with extensive photo matching, a game-used Ty Cobb bat from his 1922 season PSA/DNA GU 10, and the granddaddy of all post-war baseball cards, a 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle graded PSA 8, just begin to scratch the surface of this unprecedented auction. “We didn’t think it possible to repeat the magnitude of “The Event” in such a short turnaround time but what we’ve got to start of the 2020 year is even better with a good many items set to establish new standards of value” said MHCC President and CEO Brian Drent. The auction begins on Monday, January 6th and concludes on Thursday, January 23rd.

Other museum-quality pieces which would headline just about any other auction but will co-star here are a 1929-30 George "Babe" Ruth Professional Model H&B Louisville Slugger Game-Used Bat PSA/DNA GU 9 with Provenance Indicating It Was Used for 3 Home Runs, 1960 Mickey Mantle World Series Game-Used and Signed Adirondack Bat MEARS A10 and PSA/DNA AUTHENTIC, 1921 Exhibits Babe Ruth Autographed PSA/DNA 10 GEM MINT - The Finest Autographed Ruth Card Known In The Hobby, and an Astonishing 1933 R136 National Chicle Sky Birds Original Unopened Wax Box with (91) Unopened Packs. Each of these lots should also find themselves well into six-figure territory when the final hammer falls. Other iconic game-used material includes a 1964 Al Kaline Detroit Tigers Game-Used and Signed Road Jersey, 1971-72 Ted Williams Texas Rangers Game-Used Road Jersey-The Last Major League Jersey He Ever Wore, 1968 Harmon Killebrew Minnesota Twins Game-Used Bat Signed with (28) Signatures Featuring Martin, Carew, Wynn and Killebrew, and 1976 Hank Aaron Milwaukee Brewers Game-Used and Signed Bicentennial Louisville Slugger Bat MEARS A9. Two world-ranked sets will be offered in their entirety as well as individual lots with the method of sale determined by whichever total is higher: an Exceptional 1909-11 T206 Complete Set Completely PSA Graded #9 on PSA Set Registry With 4.27 GPA, and 1971 Topps Greatest Moments Complete Set #3 Current Finest on PSA Set Registry, while two vintage PSA Set Registry listed hockey sets; the 1910 Imperial Tobacco C55 and C56 collections, will be broken up and sold exclusively as individual lots.
