Gentlemen, your collections are inspiring.
I have a question for each of you. Out of the Mantles you all have posted, do you have a favorite in your collections? Can you even pick just one? I watched Billy Crystal's excellent 61* for the first time ever last night (found the Blu Ray for $10 on a late night Wal Mart soda and popcorn run). The movie, and the making of documentary have brought an added appreciation for what Mickey and Roger both accomplished that summer. I really wish I'd grown up back then. I might just have to make Mr. Mantle the first graded vintage I buy. I have to say that the 1953 Bowman Color Mantle sits at the very top of my list of graded vintage cards to buy. That one, and the Mantle, Berra and Bauer trio card are so beautiful to me. They're windows into a bygone era.

1. 1951 Wheaties 2. Red Heart Dog Food 3. 1952 Topps 4. Push Pull 5. Mantle, Berra, Bauer The bottom four change on a somewhat regular basis but the 51 Wheaties is a pretty consistent winner for me. I have 30 cards left on my checklist (will likely add more when I get done though), and things may change as I pick some of the others up.
