Nothing to flashy here . But I feel as long as it starts with Mays and ends in Robinson . Your probably right .
Wow. This is different for sure. I guess you think pretty highly of Willie Mays, having him #1 over Mantle.

We all have our likes, and we all have our dis-likes.

For many years in our hobby, by necessity we've come to pick and choose, and the picks are getting fewer and fewer, 'cause the picks are getting more and more expensive!

It depends. If you are ranking players on field performance, then it is pretty subjective, but Williams is probably #1. I take it as card values. That is less subjective because we have sales data that points to Mantle being the clear #1.

I put them in the order that I personally collect them. The only reason Mantle was last on my list is his cards are way too expensive for me. I could buy several of the other players cards for the same amount of $ as 1 Mantle. I do have several Mantle cards but they are all beaters. My 55 Bowman has a chunk missing out of the back the size of a 50 cent piece.

Mantle is obviously the most popular player in terms of collectability in the hobby as a whole, and my personal favorite as I'm working on a regular issue Mantle run. My list is in order of personal interest.
