Mickey Mantle

Opinions on authenticity? I see a lot of positives on this one but I’m not completely sure.

I’ve probably owned over 100 Mantles in 40+ years of collecting (only kept one). His “little e” at the end of “Mantle” post playing days always irritated me… lol

The photo copy of his 1952 baseball card that was used at shows in the late 1970’s is a perfect example of that. Every one that I have seen has the tiny e, and even more so than usual. They are all very consistent, even the one I got in person. I am always shocked by how they all look the same.
