Mantle is to much of a legend for this to happen....ask almost any kid today who Cobb is or Wagner and they will look at you with a stupid face....Ruth's numbers have been beaten by players like Aaron and Bonds but who pays a fortune for a Aaron or Bonds card very few people do why simple they are NOT true legends that transcend threw history like Ruth and Mantle.

Ask almost any kid from New York who Mantle is they will know right away...Ruth's 714 homeruns has already been beat and will be beat again and again in the future but who cares Ruth is Ruth and that goes for Mantle as well.

Plus the 52 Topps set is Iconic as well as been the 1st Topps set ever so Mantle will do just fine down the road!!! People mostly collect T206, 33 Goudey and 52 Topps that is just the way it is....almost no one cares about sets from the 1980's and later...this will not change people want to collect insert cards and guess what when they find a Ruth or a Mantle they yell with joy.

Name me just one baseball player since Mantle's playing days came to a end who people care more about....the answer is NONE!!! A lot of people have over 500 homeruns but 95%-99% people forget about and could care less about but not Mantle and Ruth.

Derek Jeter will beat Cobb as far as hits go some time in the next couple of years...again who really cares about Jeter compared to Cobb!!!
