Easily the Post-1960 Holy Grail.
Agreed.

I placed a bid, but as expected it did not hit the reserve (and I am sure that it will be miles from the ending price. Card should easily get $20,000 or more (and I could imagine it getting way more.) Crazy that it is /3.

Have any of the three been up for auction prior to this? Amazing card and agree that it will go for at least $20K. Would also love to see the Killebrew auto /3. I believe one sold years ago.

Pretty sure the Killebrew is /1 (I think that's what you meant to type.) For a long time it was on eBay with a BIN of like $12,999 or something like that.

The one I recall seeing a 'realized price' for in a Beckett was /3. I was under the impression that all of the autos were to the player's jersey number.

No worries. Made me search as I was curious about the set. It looks like the Mantle auto was a 1/1. Here's a link to some info on the product. http://baseballcardpedia.com/index.php/Upper_Deck_A_Piece_of_History_500_HR_Club

I think they should have taken a bit of time before listing this card to promote the future sale of it. While it will get tons, this is the type of card if it had a few articles written up on it would be huge. There are guys who collect this set who may not see this auction for whatever reason. I think they goofed a bit.
