You can search for auctions were a Mickey Mantle signed Baseball is being auctioned off and compare. Be sure that the baseball that is being sold is authenticated by a reputable company. This will only assure that the likelihood of the signature is authentic. You must have the signature professional authenticated to be sure. An autograph that is not authenticated by a creditable company could sell at half the market value or less. Two of the top, and most trusted authenticators are PSA/DNA, and James Spence Authentic (JSA). Collectors will pay more for signatures authenticated by either one. It may sound odd but in some cases PSA/DNA, and JSA authenticated signatures may sell higher than a Letter of authenticity from an unknown or less trusted authenticator that witnessed the signing even though PSA/DNA, and JSA did not. It's just a matter of collectors trust, and collectors will pay more for it. Check the respective websites Show Schedule to see if they will be in the area that you live. They also do business through the mail. If you did not acquire the signatures yourself, or are not sure of its origin, do your homework. Before spending money on having the autograph authenticatedfind signatures on line that have been properly authenticated, and compare them to yours. If you feel comfortable that they are authentic then proceed.

There were a few 1952 Mickey Mantle cards re issued by Topps over the years. The 1996 Topps Mantle Finest Refractors reads on the back: "Mickey Mantle Commemorative set card # of 19" it also has a copyright 1996 the Topps company inc. The other 1996 Topps cards have a set logo on the front. The 1991 Topps Archives reads archives on the back. The original would just have the Copyright symbol followed by T.C.G.

How much did the mickey rookie card sell for in 1952?

Non graded 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle cards could sell for a lot less typically in the $4,000.-$10,000. price range depending on condition they could sell for more. Graded cards will sell for a significant amount of money more mostly because of the many fakes on the market. Hard core collectors will only spend big money on graded cards by reputable companies such as PSA.In 2001 a PSA NM-MT 8 1952 Topps Mantle broke new ground with a final bid of $57,560 making it the highest price every paid for a 1952 Topps Mantle in NM-MT condition at that time. A 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle PSA 8 NM-MT sold for a staggering $72,056! in 2006I have heard that a PSA MT 10 sold for $120,000. and there are only three known examples in that condition but I can't verify this. I have seen many fakes trying to be sold, and most are caught before big money is spent.

Did Mickey Mantle make any records?

'I Love Mickey' by Mickey Mantle and Teresa BrewerIn 1956 Mickey Mantle recorded a song with Teresa Brewer called "I Love Mickey" under the Coral Records label. Teresa Brewer Sings The Lyrics, and Mickey Mantle Talks Back to her, on the record. She would sing "I Love Mickey" and he would reply "Mickey Who?" (Teresa Brewer) "You know the Fella with the celebrated swing...." The Song came into being when one day Teresa Brewer was at a Yankee game watching Mickey in action. While leaving the Ball park Teresa commented to her friend "That Mantle is terrific! Someone should write a song about him" Teresa started singing her friend chimed in and they had a few bars written. They presented the song to Mickey, and Mantle said "Great", and recorded the song with Teresa.See Related Links below for more information on the record and sheet music.

What is the value of a Mickey Mantle first home run card that has been autographed?

Although baseball bats, and uniforms are valued at a higher price baseballs are the most common and most preferred item to be signed. The signed baseball can be used as a guideline to value other items.Photos typically sell at about 40-60 percent the price of an Autographed baseball. The lowest priced items would be for a "cut Signature." A cut signature is a signature on a piece of paper, or "cut" from a larger piece. Index cards are the next step up, and both sell at a fraction (10-20%) the cost of Baseballs. Collectibles could fall into any of these categories, and I would put the signed country club card somewhere in the category between a cut signature/Index card, and a signed photo.The Continental Country Club card can be tied in with Mickey Mantle, and might add some extra value, but by itself will have little collectible value if any unless his name appears on the card. The bulk of the value will rely on the strength of the signature, and how well the card displays the signature.A Mickey Mantle single signed baseball is worth about $400.-$600. Price will vary based on condition, and type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. That would put the value of the signed Continental Country Club card at about $80.- $150. and again the value will be determined by How well the signature displays the signature, and how desirable the Country Club card is to collectors. Price will vary based on condition, and type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. If the card displays as a "cut Signature" the value could be as low as $50.-$100. I have seen a black and white copy of a (cardboard) 1964 Mickey Mantle baseball card same size as the original without a COA sell for $45.I have a Mickey Mantle Reserve Life Insurance Card on my website. I know of one that sold for $150. signed and this card features a picture of Mickey Mantle, short bio, and stats. I do not remember if the card was accompanied by a letter of authenticity.For more information on similar items signed by Mickey Mantle, and Mickey Mantle Memorabilia visit the link I left below.

How much did Mickey Mantles rookie card sell for in 1952?

No one bought cards off each other, you either traded them or won them by playing colors, or *flipping them. A pack of baseball cards cost .05 cents in 1952, and you got a stick of gum! If you didn't get a Mickey Mantle card you might have been able to trade a Yogi Berra card for two or three Mickey Mantle's. The back of Mantle's card read 13 career home runs, with a 267 average. Not the star yet, I'm sure a lot of Mantle baseball cards landed up in the spokes of bicycle tires. A common practice back in the day.You took a baseball card, and fastened it to the frame of a bicycle with a clothes pin so that the card would hit the spokes of the tire. As you rode the bike it made a cool motorcycle like sound! Now you know why these cards are so expensive today.*Flipping cards. - One kid takes a card, holds it beteen finger tips, and thumb along his side and then, with a flip of the wrist, lets it drop to the floor. If It lands, face up (heads) or face down (tails). The second kid then flips and tries to match the card. If they match he wins, if not the first kid wins.

Did anyone ever hit a home run out of the old Yankee Stadium?

No. On May 22, 1963 Mickey Mantle came close to hitting a fair ball out of Yankee Stadium. Mantle hit a home run off the right field upper façade in the "old Stadium". The façade was 108 feet high and the distance from home plate was 374 feet. The ball was still rising when it hit. Mickey thought it was the hardest ball he had ever hit.When I was a kid I remember hearing about Johnny Ellis, a catcher for the Yankees doing it in batting practice. I don't know how true this is because no body talks about.
