Gem mint PSA 10 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle baseball card, may well be worth $10 million.

I just started a new ebook on Wattpad entitled Childhood Memories - poetry that reveals the exciting, joyful, energetic, passionate, blissful, raging and painful childhood experiences of Baby Boomers in the 1950's, `60s and early `70s. 

At least, that's what I think it will do.
