Like I said in that post, just looking real fast, and not really a Cards fan, and knowing that Slaughter wasn't a Card at the time (1954), anyway...sorry for doubting you. I bow to you as the more experter guy!

You are correct, Sir! (and who the heck are the other two dudes?)
Sorry, I get a little crazy with pics sometimes. On the other side of the board, it seems whenever someone asks, "Who is this?" in a picture, 99.99% of the responses are so off the mark and not even close, that it drives me nuts!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Too bad you had to pay extra for the Mantle when all you wanted was the Alou

One of the disadvantages of being a Felipe Alou master set collector....

I just did a little research and Felipe had such an impressive family. At some point, I might do an Alou family rookie card collection.

Default '55 Bowman

Being probably my least favorite main stream Mantle, I wasn't willing to splurge on a nice graded example.. going instead for this "collector grade" example. I normally don't go after anything I don't like, and I really can't stand this '55 set!!, but given I was down to two Mantles (Topps/Bowman) needed to complete a run, I just had to.

I see why you don't like that card. It is not a flattering pic of Mick.

Congrats on nearing completion! I don't blame you. I hate the 55 Bowmans as well.

Default 1955 Armour Coin

Picked up this 1955 Armour Coin Mantle (correct spelling, bats L-R). A slight issue on the top lip that I believe occurred when it was taken out of the mold(?), but I will take it.

That's a tough oddball 1972 Puerto Rican League Sticker of HOFer Goose Gossage.
