The 1952 Topps #311 Mickey Mantle card has absolutely seen better days, but few items in the world of collecting speak for themselves. This iconic card is one of them. "Holy grail" is a term often used to describe the significance of the #311 Mickey Mantle card in the legendary 1952 Topps set. The Mantle card, despite its flaws, should realize $30,000-$35,000.

All estimates in this report are in Canadian dollars.

The Mitchell & Ness Boston Red Sox jersey with a period Babe Ruth signature professionally and meticulously applied to the pinstriped shirt's number 3 (the number Ruth wore as a player) is a true one-of-a-kind item, and one that's been authenticated by PSA. Ruth began his career with the Red Sox before being sold to the Yankees. The jersey is expected to bring $20,000-$30,000.

The Maurice "Rocket" Richard signed and game-used hockey stick, 62 inches long, is from the 1946-47 Hart Trophy (MVP) season, at the height of Richard's offensive powers, in which he recorded 45 goals and 71 points in 60 games for the Montreal Canadiens, propelling the team to the Stanley Cup Final.  The stick is signed by 17 players, and a bold number 9 is stamped beneath the tape of the upper shaft. Estimate: $10,000-$12,000.
