My 1976 Topps autographed Al Oliver has been MIA. Really gorgeous card.

When you find that card, it will probably be surrounded by the untold numbers of socks that went mysteriously missing from your dryer over the years.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I used to misplace cards all the time, usually those recently purchased, because after examining them, I would put them back in the original mailer until I got around to digging out the set they belonged to. I recall doing that with a mint '54 Bowman Mays card, and then having a light bulb go on over my head about three weeks later while watching an old tv documentary about the Giants. I jumped up and ran to my den and began searching through piles of old mailers, but it was no where. I spent about a month turning stuff upside down looking for it, fearing it had been thrown out by mistake, but then finally opened a letter from the VA sitting on my desk and out fell the Mays card. All purchases since then have gone immediately into proper storage.

I do it all the time. I cant remember if I sold it, misplaced it or never had it to begin with.

For those that don't know, on some front load washing machines, there is a rubber gasket on the front that holds in the tub. The gasket has some flexibility and socks can get sucked in. You can pull it back with your hand to retrieve them when they go missing. I spent a week trying to figure out where eight or so of my son's socks went. Incredibly frustrating. Unless the Mantle went through the wash, it's unlikely there though.
