Love that card Bill. Interesting how they slightly modified and enlarged the image from the '51 Bowman card for the '53 Topps.

I don't know Craig. His ear doesn't match.

BTW... that 52 Spring Training photo is yet another MONSTER image of the Mick! There will come a time Craig, that we're gonna have to talk trade...

You are probably right Jimmy, but if you rotate the '51 image of Mickey's face to the more upright position found in the '53 you will see more of the similarities although they clearly enhanced/changed some details. It still seems possible to me that the '51 Bowman image formed the basis for the '53 Topps.

---and I'm sure that day will come!

Default Another Mantle Photo
Type I photo of the Mick with Mel Allen. Used for a "Sports Quiz" August of 1954 in Sport Magazine. Not that many images of the two together during Mickey's early years. Love the smile on Mickey and that ghostly image of the YS stands in the background.

My favorite Mantle ball since its the only one inscribed with the #7 and I have wanted one for years and finally bought one. It was an upper deck ball until the previous owner took off the sticker, and now its got a full letter from PSA/DNA.
