Overrated: 1952 Topps Mantle, followed closely by the comic book cartoonish 1953 Topps Mantle.
Underrated: 1933 Goudey Gehrig 92. Here is greatest first baseman ever. How is Ruth, at the end of his career, or Mantle worth more?
Favorite: 1960 Topps Mantle. Just a gorgeous card. IMO Mantle's best ever.
Least Favorite: Those hideous W series strip cards of Ruth and others. Frankly, I do not understand why anyone with taste would want them. They look like something made by Fisher-Price. It can only be because of the money.
