I am thinking of collecting every 1952 topps player's cards from every additional topps set..
so for Mickey mantle would be every year through 1969
Howie Fox .just need the 1952...
I wonder who along with Mantle had a card issued in 1969 or later....and what the last year would be for player or manager.....
Hoyt Wilhelm I know had a long carrer....the RCs from the 1952 set would have lots of follow up cards....
Yogi berra would have some 80s cards as a manager..
this will be fun...

Mays goes through 73 as a player I think, and Schoendienst has some manager cards in the mid 70's with Topps, I know he had one in 1981 in Donruss, but I don't remember Topps having him in their set that year.

Dick Williams is a possibility as he had a 1988 Topps card (Mariners manager). If it's players only then I believe Mays is the winner.

Willie Mays has cards through 1974.
Eddie Mathews also has cards through 1974 (as Braves manager) I think.
Dick Groat and Vern Law both run through at least 1967.
Minnie Minoso has a card in the 1977 set.
Hoyt Wilhelm has cards every year up to 1972.
Billy Martin has manager cards all the way up to 1985 I think.
Dick Williams also has manager cards well into the 1980s too.

I not going backwards...only forwards.....
I believe that the last cards for Robin Roberts, Warren Spahn, and Yogi Berra were in the 1965 Topps set.
Yogi appeared in later sets as a manager, but this was his last as a player.

...Schoendienst has some manager cards in the mid 70's with Topps...
Schoendienst actually had his last card, prior to tribute cards, in 1990 Topps.

Spahn appears as one of the Indians' coaches on the 1973 Ken Aspromonte card.
