Mantle is perfect for 56 as well as Aaron for 57. I like Kaline for 58. Something about the red background for me. 59 I would go with Frank Robinson. Nice pose, black background and I love the historical point of the name change to "Redlegs". 1960 is easy for me. Musial. Koufax for 61, Maris for 62, 63 I love Clemente. I like Brock in 64, Yaz in 65, Killebrew or Palmer in 66 and on and on.
Great idea for a collection. Keep us posted on choices. It should be an interesting one to follow.

Ps I agree with the above poster. 51 should be included
