Since the 1952 card was mentioned, I'll also add this...

23. Mycophant (also Twenty Four/#7)
A person who only cares about cards, memorabilia or topics associated with their reverence for and obsession with Mickey Mantle.

See also: Micrepresentation - the refusal to acknowledge the fact you only want Mantle cards because of their huge resale value and potential return on investment (ROI).

See also: Inmantleize - once again condescendingly referring to basic Mickey Mantle card facts that we’ve heard a million times before, i.e., “The 1952 Topps is not his rookie card,” or “The 1965 Topps World Series Game 3 ‘Mantle's Clutch HR’ card actually shows him missing the pitch...and it wrongly shows Bob Gibson pitching in that game!!!”

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
