I'm guessing that the significance of 52T Mantle #311 is that Mantle's batting average for the 1952 season coincidentally ended up at .311

My brother pulled a Blanda rookie out of a 1954 Bowman pack in the early 90's

311 = my birthday, one of my favorite bands, and, apparently is a code for the Ku Klux Klan (KKK = 3x the 11th letter in the alphabet). I only learned about the KKK connection after someone pointed this out to me when I was playing on Pokerstars back in the day with my userid of h2oya311 . My guess is that none of these are the significance that Ted speaks of with respect to #311 of the '52 Topps set.

Mantle hit .311 as the other gentlemen mentioned in 52.. Have a few 51 Red Backs I keep mulling over opening one but can't see through the wrapper, except one you can see the red back so I am guessing players are folded in...
Also have a 55 Topps rack with a Mays on the back and wonder whether there is a Clemente hiding in there too... much tougher decision... Have done some 75's and remember doing well... Certainly remember the 85 Gooden rookie was always in the rack packs with the Joe Altabelli All Star card on the front...Also had the McGuire tracked too but forget who the All-Star card was the tip-off..
