With this question, I'd say stick to something that isn't Mickey Mantle. Both the 51 bowman and 52 topps are very readily available if you're not concerned with price. I just don't see big upside there. I'd pick older stuff that may or may not be in favor right now. I don't think you can go wrong with a T205 or T206 Cobb or Young in the long term and I think those would appreciate faster than a Mantle.
As a few others have said, every post is a different answer and if we're discussing this, we're likely at the current market top. It will be interesting to see where the card market goes!!
