Graded MINT 9 by PSA. Presented is one of just four copies of this rare pin of Mickey Mantle from this ultra elusive issue to have been graded MINT 9 by PSA with only one graded higher! PM 15 Yellow Basepath Pins are the key 1950's pin back set and are notoriously difficult to find in high grade due to the fragile green ink that surrounds the circumference of these small 7/8" pins. PM 15 Yellow Basepath pins were distributed in 1956 via small bubble gum machines and are quite obviously much more difficult to find then Topps or Bowman gum cards from the same period. A stellar opportunity to acquire the one of the finest known examples of Mickey Mantle from this elusive series.
