The 1962 season was one chapter in a career defined by seasons that produced three American League Most Valuable Player Awards, seven World Series championships as a Yankee, and a career home run total that placed him among the all-time leaders at a position where power had never been expected to arrive in the way it arrived in Mantle. The 1962 Topps All Star subset card at #471 documents him at the moment of his All Star recognition in that season – a card produced when Topps was the defining name in baseball cards and the documentation of the game's greatest players was done in the straightforward format that collectors of vintage Topps know as the standard of the era.

The 1962 Topps All Star #471 PSA 4 VG-EX is a PSA-certified specimen of that era, graded and authenticated, the paper artifact of a season played before most current collectors were born. ⭐\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚾ Mickey Mantle.
