If I was looking to spend $500 on post-war HOFers, the last two guys I would be looking at are Mantle and Clemente. In my opinion, they're the two most overvalued post-war players, along with Pete Rose, that exist. The two most undervalued players from the same era, in my estimation, are Stan Musial and Yogi Berra, in part, because they're still alive. In particular, I'd be looking at a 1952 Bowman of Berra, which just happens to card #1 in the set, yet somehow sells for less than the equally common 1952 Topps #1 card of Andy Pafko. It's also my belief that someday, the 1950-53 Bowman sets will get the credit ... and the prices ... they deserve ...
