That’s why I love your channel. You get to see an amazing sports card and hear a Coming to America reference 😆! Thanks for sharing your awesome pickup!
Wow, blown away. That one is special. I’ve only seen that one in books and photos. Makes me think of the 77 Topps Reggie Orioles card. Truly Presidential of you to land that one. Congrats and all the best, Ronnie
Great Card! I've been back in the hobby since 2008 and I still learn things from your videos. I had no clue Roger Maris wasn't in the Hall of Fame. Your doing great work and thanks for the education on some of these players.
Wow that is a monster card! I really want the Seaver and Gibson proofs from 1968 with the pictures showing them as lefties and a different photo. Will probably never get them but these are on my dream card list. This card is very similar to those and is an amazing pick-up. Definitely one to be proud of. Congrats and thanks for sharing.
Will not let me post links. But if you google 1968 Gibson proof you can see a picture in an SCD article called Topps proofs part 2 and there is one for a King’s ransom on EBay. if you google 1968 Seaver proof there is a Net 54 thread that shows it. The interesting thing is that neither is a reverse negative as both pretended to be lefties to fool the photographer. Unfortunately Topps caught it and went with more boring pictures for their 1968 cards. I think you would enjoy seeing them.
As a kid growing up during the Maris/Mantle rage that card is a BEAUTY to look at, I love the old Yankee Stadium in the background! I can understand your excitement, must feel great!
Great addition to the collection. Put Maris in the hall. The homerun chase, the asterisk, two MVPs, the impact that 61 season had on pop culture. Can the stat nerds just let one or two actual famous players enter the hall of fame every once in a while?
Gave a video like. Wow, that is an awesome card, John! Congratulations on finding and bringing that beauty home. I wonder if the card proofs with the blank back are the same paper stock as the regular Topps cards are.
@MrJmangini I'm going to tag you in a video I am uploading on the 67 High #. I hope you can show your 67 Hi # Seaver and Carew. ((Watched a video you did 4 years ago))
That was a two white glove card. Roger Maris should be a HOF player, even if the stats are far from it. His 61 HR season is still talked about today and he won back to back MVP's over Mantle. It is the Hall of FAME! How can you not include players like Maris and Larsen who are talked about 60 years after they stopped playing. That is famous in my book.
You know what I like to do when gold crashes, because people have no idea what's coming, and they believe he's a Republican ??? I save my money to BUY MORE GOLD !!!
great piece of history and story behind it. just a reminder of how awesome the past really was.
Yes!
Beautiful Maris! Mangini....the definition of class...that's my president!
Thanks

That’s what I like to hear. Thanks!
Another monster pickup! Beautiful example you found, John. Congrats

Nice! Thanks Jim
Congrats and thanks for sharing the Maris card, John.
Thanks
That is one sick card, John. Holy Toledo! Well done!
Thanks
Mangini, right to the point, with a great card, and a great story. Thank you!
That 67 Maris is sure one of them “vintage oddball cards!” Seriously, congratulations on a wonderful pickup and thanks for sharing!
Thanks Rick!
Great pickup! One of the most iconic cards in the hobby.
Thanks Stuke!

Holy smokes what a card. Btw, "I'd drape myself in velvet if it were socially acceptable." -GLC
Awesome pick up John! Super cool!
Thanks Darren!
Hi John. Wow, great pickup and that is an awesome card.
Hi. Thanks!
I believe this is my first view of a "live" version of that card. Thank you!
As a kid growing up during the Maris/Mantle rage that card is a BEAUTY to look at, I love the old Yankee Stadium in the background! I can understand your excitement, must feel great!
It does! Thanks.
Great pickup. Most of those are wildly off center. Congrats on getting that copy. Incredible card!
Thanks!
You had me wondering when I saw the Yankees on the card that's a sweet looking card congrats John💥💥💥💥
Thanks
I have never even heard of this card. Mangini always informs!!
congrats john. this is an awesome card!
Thanks Ray. I appreciate you.
Great addition to the collection. Put Maris in the hall. The homerun chase, the asterisk, two MVPs, the impact that 61 season had on pop culture. Can the stat nerds just let one or two actual famous players enter the hall of fame every once in a while?
I agree.
Wow, beautiful condition too, congrats!
Thanks
What an awesome card! I know the grade is irrelevant, but that sucker is a gem mint authentic! Thanks for sharing!
Great card John, and great Coming to America reference.
Thanks. And glad you got the reference. You are the first person to mention it.
Nice card and awesome story !
Thanks
John you’re on a roll! Congrats on a big card! The Yankees looks a lot better at the bottom, then the Cards!
Thanks! Yes it does!
Awesome my friend
Thanks!
That’s really neat. The background really adds to it.
Fantastic item; very cool you have a copy
Thanks!
Gave a video like. Wow, that is an awesome card, John! Congratulations on finding and bringing that beauty home. I wonder if the card proofs with the blank back are the same paper stock as the regular Topps cards are.
We’ll never know because it is in that tomb haha
@@MrJmangini We need Jake legends never die to buy one and break it out of its tomb to let us know, hahaha.
@@Hodges1455 yes! Great idea! I’m too nervous to do it.
@@MrJmangini Haha, I don't blame ya'. I would be too.
You always have the bangers !
That is a big one! Congratulations!
Thanks!
Such a cool card, thanks Mr President.
Thanks!
Very cool and congrats!
Thanks
I like it ok, personally I would cross that Yankees off and hand write Cardinals so it's accurate. You can't have cards that lie to you.
Hahaha. I’m not sure your hatred for the Yankees is healthy lol
Awesome congrats 👍
Thanks.
I was thinking Bill Monboquette mid 60's era card. I was way freaking off, but I had the right decade.
I don’t know that one.
@@MrJmangini Yuh know Bill, Red Sox, Tigers, 59T-69T. Yeah, That guy
Fun card!
It’s a nice card! 🎉❤
Thanks
Wow, what a card!
That’s an an amazing Maris!!
Thanks
Great 👍 card
Thanks
@MrJmangini I'm going to tag you in a video I am uploading on the 67 High #.
I hope you can show your 67 Hi # Seaver and Carew. ((Watched a video you did 4 years ago))
Very nice card, cool it says Yankees
Yes!
Very cool story behind that card. Did any other players have similar cards?
No. This was the one.
That was a two white glove card. Roger Maris should be a HOF player, even if the stats are far from it. His 61 HR season is still talked about today and he won back to back MVP's over Mantle. It is the Hall of FAME! How can you not include players like Maris and Larsen who are talked about 60 years after they stopped playing. That is famous in my book.
That is way legit
Very cool John! I’ve never even heard of this version of the card.
Yo dude
How can that be a sample card if there’s no back?🤔
You’ll have to ask Topps.
Why does it get an authentic?
It’s a Topps sample. PSA only grades them authentic. No idea why. And honestly I don’t care. I personally wouldn’t have graded it.
I guess it makes sense a card that was never distributed in packs shouldn’t get a grade.
@@MrJmangini I don’t get it, but they get to make their rules I guess.
Whoa! That's a big boy!!! That and the 1977 Proof Reggie Jackson with the Orioles are the 2 coolest cards Topps ever did.
Yea the Reggie was never circulated though. Topps and auctioned the 4 of their file copies and Keith Olberman bought 3 of them I think.
Very cool. Congrats Mr. President.
Thanks
Nice card, but it's "nicely centered" cus it was trimmed. Hence the Authentic Grade.
It’s not a normal card. They were cut differently by Topps as promo cards. They are all graded authentic. Not sure your point.
@@MrJmangini 👍👍👍
You know what I like to do when gold crashes, because people have no idea what's coming, and they believe he's a Republican ??? I save my money to BUY MORE GOLD !!!
Be careful. The only thing it’s good for is powering spaceships haha
Had my hopes up for the 89 Griffey jr Upper Deck.. but this is almost as awesome... NICE !!!!!!
Thanks!
