Default Mantle cards

Posted By: Anonymous

A cards price is linked to popularity of the player and not necessarily the player's talent. If Mantle had played his entire career with St. Louis, his cards would not be anywhere close to what they are today. Being a Yankee made his cards worth so much. Mick was a god in the Golden Era Yankees. I believe Mays had much more talent. I have a few good Mays cards that I felt like were bargains compared to Mantle. A 52 Topps Mays is on my want list. I already have the 52 Bowman. I'm also in the market for a signed Mays ball.
