here's a seaver for my signed "topps card with the all-rookie team trophy" project.

Sticking with my beater Mantle kick, I just got this one in the mail a little while back. I love these things!

Thanks,

Andy--I am 62 and my first completed Topps set was 1959. I love that Mantle in any condition

I agree -- other than '52 Bowman and '53 Topps, the '59 Topps Mantle is his best looking card from the 50's. Cool addition, Andy!

Chuck, did you mean to say, other than '52 Topps and the '53 Bowman??

Man. Anyone else feel like they have way too much time to spend scouring ebay and negotiating with sellers for lower prices? Picked up these 4 beauties in the past two days.

I like cards with people smiling because it makes me happy so the Durocher and Musial were no-brainers. Musial looks so awkward in most of his contemporary cards. I went for that specific Durocher since I want to get cards of HOF managers from their managing (and not playing) days. The Schmidt is way cheaper than his RC and I like how the whole card is dedicated to him instead of a tiny corner.

Happy holidays everyone!

Do you know what "Collector's Collection" menas on the SGC flip?
