Phillies Cigar is my favorite (Note: this one isn't mine - I don't have a picture of mine handy).

Did you get the one that sold recently? I put in some strong bids on it and was planning to sell one of my 52 Topps to pay for it. But just couldn't land it. Such an awesome card.

As for favorites, I'm partial to the 60 Venezualan Topps Mantle/Boyer. That one was particularly tough to locate. I have about 20 "favorites" though.

Aside from my 52, I like the 53 and 56 copies with the 53 just slightly ahead of the 56.

I would go with 56T based on the great design and the Triple Crown year.

1956 is my favorite and the first mantle I picked up. Also like the 1955 bowman.

Here are a few of my favorites:

Venezuelan Topps


1959/60 Home Run Derby (unfortunately I've since sold the Aaron)


1963(?) Transogram


1955 Stahl Meyer (now raw as the case fell apart on me)

Wow, some very nice Mantles. I see several that are high on my want list (e.g., 1959 Bazooka, the Stahl Meyers, the Home Run Derby card, the Venezuelans).

My personal favorite is the 1957 Topps, followed by the 1958 All Star.
