People have seen the 52 Topps Mantle so many times, and it's so iconic, that they lose sight of the fact that if you look critically, it barely looks like him.

Peter--now that I look at it more closely, I think the image on the '52 Mantle is really Don Mossi

...or that it isn't even his rookie

Actually I opened up the original type 1 photo sold in May 2012 Legendary auction and an image of the card and I think it a pretty decent artist rendition I the eye brows look a little close, but it really does look like the picture.

I have seen the photo and obviously the pose is similar but to me something got lost in the translation.
