1956 or 1957 Topps? Which would you choose?

Holy smokes!

This probably only opens the can of worms more, but it might help to compare player-by-player and which set has the best cards of your favorites:

My choice of 1956 or 1957 for selected players:

- M. Mantle: 1956 (seems to be a hobby icon, not that others don't like 57)
- R. Clemente: 1956
- S. Koufax: 1957
- H. Aaron: 1957
- W. Mays: 1956
- T. Williams: 1956
- R. Campanella: 1956

Also:
- Only in 1956 set: Jackie Robinson, Bob Feller, Monte Irvin, Al Rosen
- Only in 1957 set: Brooks, Frank Robinson, Don Drysdale, Rocky Colavito

Beautiful collection, Filthy!

I never knew movie star/music star cards existed, but I do know a lady who would love to have that Elvis card.

Any of the cards for sale or trade?
I could use some of them for my personal collection!

I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to do just yet. I'm getting everything sorted/catalogued and then go from there. Will definitely let you know though.

Sweet! Let me know whenever you get a chance. I'd be interested in 56 and 57 Hall of Famers

Let me second the option to buy some of the cards in your collection. Definitely let me know once you've done what you need to do and I'll let you know what I'm looking to get. :-)
