There are missing stars from 1956 Topps too. There is no Stan Musial card. The 1958 Topps set is the closest to what we would consider complete, but players like Jackie Robinson had retired by then. I would go ahead and collect the 1955 Topps set. It has 3 great rookies and 3 great 2nd year cards. Plus it has the best design in my opinion. The design was so good that they copied it again in 1956. The hobby continues to put emphasis on rookie cards and the 1953 Topps set has none, just the iconic Mantle card.
