The 1956 Topps set
In my opinion, the most beautiful set ever produced by any company.
This was the first year Topps didn't have Bowman bugging them, they spiked the ball in grand style!
Checklist cards, team cards and.. at least for one more year.. the great large size!
Very colorful cards and all of the stars (except Musial) are here. Mantle (in his triple crown season) Campy (after winning his third MVP) Same with Yogi..
I always loved the Herb Score card. Such happiness!
And a young Koufax that is very affordable!
And the Worlds Champions Brooklyn Dodgers!
Does anyone else love this set?
I finished this set on March 8, 2009 when I added Phil Rizzuto to the collection.
