I agree the Ruth is undervalued, especially relative to the Mick. But, there are not too many people left alive who saw Ruth play while there are lots of Baby Boomers left who grew up idolizing Mantle. So while the '52 Topps Mick is far more plentiful, I don't know if any of us ever see an accurate price point comparison of the two. That might not happen while Mantle fans remain alive.
