The '56 Mantle. As a kid probably 10 or 11 years old, I first saw a picture of it in one of the Surf books that had every Topps card pictured for a particular team. Then a few years later I came upon a lower grade one in a card shop and traded the dealer virtually my entire collection at the time to take it home. That one was traded in for an upgrade (to SGC 4) this past summer. Just a classic looking card of the best player in baseball at the time, and to me screams 1950's nostalgia.

I love all these stories. The grape juice is classic.
