I'll still call it, "overlooked" at least because of the fact you can still find one at a much cheaper price point, but Mantle's 1951 Bowman Issue, it's his technical RC as we all know, yet so many times the mystique of his 52 topps Issue, takes over the conversation.
Even though both have skyrocketed in price, you're still finding his true rookie to be a third of the price, his 52 topps is. Hell if were looking at release dates, and of course someone please correct me if I am wrong, Wouldn't his 52 topps technically be his 6th issue? In the following order it would be
51 Bowman
51 Wheaties
52 Berk Ross
52 Bowman
52 tip top Bread
52 topps
Just something to think about, in my opinion.
