This is hard to believe, but it happened. If it had occurred today, it would have taken a Saudi prince to buy the lot of cards. The title is misleading, but roughly 90 untouched 1952 Mickey Mantle rookie cards were sold. Along with countless other 1952 Topps baseball cards. The total value today, assuming grades of 7 or above for most of the cards, would probably approach 100 million dollars. Unreal.
