The most grossly overrated card of all time...
In my opinion, is card # 311 from the 1952 Topps set.. Mickey Mantle.
First of all, I am tired of the card as being presented as his "rookie" card. It is not. That honor belongs to the 1951 Bowman card.. Yes.. Bowman trumped Topps here. Secondly, While I understand it is a "high number", the card was double printed. That means there are plenty out there! In all grades too. While the Mantle card has the value, I feel the Mathews card (# 407) is far tougher and rarer then Mantle. That's the one that should be getting the accolades. I'll add 1952 Topps card # 1 Andy Pafko in a close second. It is a dammed common for crying out loud! I don't care if it's card number 1, it is Andy Pafko, a name that has been far from a stumbling block in putting ANY other set together! What card would you nominate as the most grossly overrated card of all time? Last edited by 1963Topps Set; 12-05-2014 at 08:05 PM. |
