Hi Nelson,

Although there was no actual card issued by Topps, there is a 1954 Sports Illustrated Mantle issue, which I believe Topps played a part in--they look like Topps cards. They are designed like regulate cards but printed on thin stock and have to be hand cut. They are a real bargain as far as 50s Mantles go, primarily because PSA does not grade them yet. I got an intact magazine with all inserts in NM/M for around 100 a few mints ago. I'd imagine the price will sky rocket as PSA will inevitably grade them. So, I'd recommend grabbing one sooner rather than later if you are interested.
