Garage Sale Finds! Help!

Garage Sale Finds! Help!
I was on my way home from town today and stopped at a couple garage sales. At the first one, I found this Mickey Mantle card, but I have no idea what it is. It's pretty thick and heavy and numbered on the back out of /50000, does anyone have any idea what it is? It only cost me 10 bucks, so I'm trying to find out if I got a pretty good deal or not.

Also, I know this isn't baseball stuff, but I had to show off a couple of the other things I found.
This Dizzy Dean pocket knife, in almost perfect condition, for only 5 bucks!

And then I don't really collect stamps or anything like that at all, but I saw these couple things laying around and decided to pick them up as well.

This one only cost me 3 dollars!

And then this thing was a whole booklet of stamps that picked up for 10 bucks!

Don't know if I found a good deal or not, but I thought I'd show everything off!

Please let me know if you have any information about that Mantle, I'd really appreciate it!

I would think that you did alright for yourself. Is the Mantle card ceramic? The knife is a cool piece of memorabilia.

the mantle is porcelain, part of the hamilton collection
they sell for 5-20 dollars in ebay...usually an average of around 14, including the shipping

The Mantle might be one of these.

R&N is a chinese company that was granted a license to reproduce a bunch of Topps rokkie cards. I have a bunch of the 80's guys like Henderson, Ripken, Clemens, etc...
