I`ve seen 3 on ebay over the last year or so with prices all over the place. Thanks again for any info on this cool period Mantle piece.

Sorry about the late reply to this, somehow I missed it last month.

SCD lists the year of the All-Star photo pack as 1954. That photo was also issued in the 1956 Yankees photo pack set. I've attached a photo of it from the Yankees photo set.

Thank you for the info Mike, a relative newcomer to the Mantle surge. Was able to pick up a couple of these as a way of acquiring some period items at still an affordable price. Again thanx for the input since I`ve found myself using this thread for daily/weekly collecting advice !

You're welcome. Even though you're a "relative newcomer to the Mantle surge," I saw that you picked up a very nice looking PSA 1.5 '52 Topps Mantle. That is a card I still don't have. Not sure when, or if, I'll ever get that one. A big congrats on that pick up.

I got the attached Mantle from the Huggins and Scott auction. It is from a team Action Pictures set. I believe the year is 1955. I'm basing the year on the players included in the set.

A few Mantle pick ups from late October/early November auctions that I received mid-November and haven't posted yet.

Dave, thanks! I love them, especially the Jello-O advertisement.

According to an article in SCD by Kelly Eisenhauer, it is from the late 1950s. Here's a link to the article, it's pretty informative:

Kelly mentions in his article regarding the Mickey Mantle Action Baseball Game that a trade ad was enclosed in the box, dated 1957, which could date the game itself to late 1956 (Christmas), shortly after Mickey's Triple Crown season.

Congrats especially on your acquiring the large JELL-O point of purchase advertising placard. A genuine beauty, Mike. When Bob Lemke accurately recreated a 1963 JELL-O black raspberry complete box in spring 2015, he chose the heart of Mickey's picture on the placard to do a variant photo for the "free prize" card. A work of art, baseball card style. I value it highly. ---Brian Powell
