Default 1956 Topps: The Year of the Quotation Mark

Among the many things to love about the 1956 Topps set are the large number of cards with players' nicknames in quotation marks. "Spook" Jacobs might be my favorite of the 25 such cards. Topps even felt the need to put quotation marks around the nicknames of such well-known stars "Duke" Snider, "Pee Wee" Reese and "Whitey" Ford -- but not Yogi Berra.
