Description

1952 Bowman Mickey Mantle #101 SGC VG-EX 4. Mickey Mantle, just 20 years old at the start of the 1952 season, was beginning to show flashes of the legendary talent that would define his Hall of Fame career with the New York Yankees. Following his rookie season in 1951, Mantle was poised to take center stage as one of the most feared switch-hitters the game had ever seen. The 1952 Bowman #101 card captures this pivotal moment in time, offering collectors a glimpse of Mantle before he became a baseball icon.

This card is among the most sought-after early Mantle issues, featuring a finely illustrated portrait that reflects Bowman's refined post-war aesthetic. Its understated design stands in contrast to the more flamboyant 1952 Topps issue, appealing to collectors who value artistic detail and historical depth. In SGC VG-EX 4 condition, it balances visual charm with accessibility, making it a cornerstone piece for any vintage baseball collection.
