1956 Topps Graded Set running mailday thread

[VinTX]

Well, I have recently gotten back into collecting after a long break and man have I missed it!!!

I decided I wanted to just jump right back in head first and decided that I wanted to put together a graded set of 1956 Topps as I love the look of it. I'm going for every card being atleast a PSA 7/SGC 84 NM or better :)

The first one of the set just arrived in the mail today, kickin the set off with a bang! I'll add em to this thread as they come in and will also have everything scanned HERE (http://s936.photobucket.com/albums/ad206/texans81/PC/Vintage/1956%20Topps%20Baseball%20PSA%20Set/) if you ever want to see it all together.

So here's the first one in my set!

#135 - Mickey Mantle SGC 86/7.5 NM+

Hey Travis,

Great start to this amazing set! Knocked the big boy off the list right away. I love the '56 set. It's a great looking bunch of cards. Nice choice.

Best,

thanks! I've always really liked this set and the '55 so who knows, if I get this one finished and I'm not just totally exhausted with the idea of it, maybe I'll start up the 55 next ;)

just one thing in the mail for me today but it was a pretty nice one and the second card in my set! thanks for looking!
