Biggest Pull In My Life

As you might not have known, i have been working on my consumer behavior project on collecting for awhile and needless to say, it got me back into collecting hardcore. (Like i ever left or needed help for that matter.) So tonight i just really got the urge to look through some cards, so i "talked" ashley into taking me to Target. So we get there and i look in the card aisle to get a new Topps 2006 World Series Updates and Highlights wax box. So i open up the cards, honestly hoping for a Cory Lidle update card because its a pretty cool tribute card, and i get through 5 packs before i lose it and flip out in the middle of Starbucks (ash wanted coffee).

I look down and see the greatest pull i have ever had.....

A MICKEY MANTLE GAME USED BAT HOMERUN #104 RELIC CARD!!!So i go nuts for basically....the rest of the night. This card is number 05/07. So it is ultra rare and is estimated to be valued at $200.00.........SCHWING!! I basically bought the card for $.15 too! ($9.99 for a box of 66 cards)

So let's just say that this is what i would call a keeper card. It is valued at $200.00 and there are only 7 out there of it. Mickey Mantle is dead, so its not going to be affected by what he does in life and as the years go buy, his legend gets bigger and bigger, so the price can only go higher and higher!

Needless to say, i think i will be holding on to this card for awhile.

Keep On Collecting!!
