Product code: Mickey Mantle and Joe Dimaggio purchases Lot
A super rare find, the card to behold here is the Mantle Rookie. Yes, it IS a reprint, but there's something special about it. This card was printed by Topps, but not sold in stores ever. The only way to obtain one was by being a guest to the East Coast National Show purchases, presented by Gloria Rothstein August 17, 1991. This card was obtainable for one day only! Cards like these usually sell for more, because they ARE so rare. Read about these events if you've never heard of them. Ive only found a few more of these cards on the web and doubt most owners are willing to part with them. Mickey Mantle attended the show, so there ARE a few cards out there that wrre signed. The Dimaggio card is exceptionally beautiful as well, a 2012 Topps Museum Collection printed on a two-ply cardstock.
