Default Vintage Baseball Card - Questions (Mickey Mantle & Willie Mays)

Posted By: davidcycleback

One thing I was reminded of reading my own column is that, as the real Mantle and Mays are on heavy cardboard, they should let no light through when held up to a bright light source like a desk lamp. Many of the reprints, likely including Topps' own reprints, will let through light as they are on different, lighter stock.
