The 1956 set is loaded! No major rookie cards, but all the names are there including an iconic Mantle card.

Ditto on 1956 set. I've built it and it has a lot of big stars.
And I would take 1955 over a set that has Mantle. 1955 is a beautiful set. My opinion of course. Good luck Robert on what you decide.

Being a Boston fan, I did 55 because I had no Mantle! Kind of shot myself in the foot collecting 52 topps thereafter

There is no Musial. That is why I would do the 1953 Bowman set for a Mantle. It has all the stars that are missing from 1954 & 1955 Topps.

Name the only (period) set with Mantle, Mays, Musial, Williams and Jackie.

Indeed. I don't think any other set has even 4 of the 5.

In my personal opinion, the '55 is the best looking Topps set of all--absolutely beautiful cards!
May your collecting bring joy, over and over, Larry |
