Mantle was the best player on those teams. I don't mean that every player on the roster will enjoy the same effect on popularity or collectability. But I would bet that Whitey Ford's cards are worth more than a pitcher with comparable stats and less titles.

Mantle is a unique case as his popularity is far greater than his career stats. I was just saying the titles make a big difference and that's what people remember. Would Jordan still be viewed as the greatest without 6 titles? And just because Pippen also has 6 rings doesn't mean his cards should be anywhere close in value.
