Anyone think this mantle tag card is real?

I'd like to see a scan from the side and see what the edges look like.

I am gonna say no.

That big lot he jersey/auto lot he sold is up already from a different buyer who bought it. Shady, very well could be.

When was Wilson a uniform supplier for the Yanks?
At least since the '50s. The Yankees wore uniforms from various companies in the '50s and '60s, including Wilson, Spalding and Macgregor.
Dave Grob, who is one of the foremost uniform authenticators in the industry, writes a blog about jerseys and ones sold for an auction house.
Here's one entry in which he discusses the manufacturers:

My money is on it being fake. There are two searchable 2010 Topps Sterling Mantle 1/1s besides this and one has four bat pieces and the other has a bat piece with 2 plain jersey swatches.

I mean the back if the card doesn't say it was worn by Mickey mantle himself, therefore, there isn't really a reason to fake it. I mean it just says it was "game worn" so it could be any player on any roster. That's just what I think
