Again, however, I believe Adam pointed out in his OP that the '69 Mantles were disqualified from the survey because the Mick had retired before the 1969 season and thus he was no longer active. If you make an exception and allow post-retirement cards for Mantle, then you have to do the same for everyone, in which case I'm pretty sure the all-time winner for last card is this one:

I think this has to be one of the best looking last cards of a hall of famer. Ernie Lombardi played his last year in the Pacific Coast League.

Did Babe Ruth have any cards as an active player after the 33 Goudeys, aside from the 35 Four in One that essentially duplicates his picture from the 33? If not, those four cards were a pretty nice way to go out.
