Congratulations Chris!! Quite an impressive gathering of Mantle items. As any collector knows, you can collect a formulaic list prepared by someone else or you can go your own road. Kudos for collecting what makes YOU happy. As a Mantle collector myself, I refuse to go after the '65 Bancroft Tiddlers abomination of a "Mantle" card. Hence, my collection will never be "complete." Keeping it weird in Austin.
PS Thanks for helping me along with my collection.

Thank you all. It's been so great getting to know so many good people through the hobby. Brian, I have somewhere around 50+ duplicates as well. So, one day, when I get a firm count on them, I'm likely going to pick up around 25 of his cheaper cards to make it an even 500 (I'm assuming I can still get those ugly checklists for $3.00 a pop). Maybe a couple of checklists.
Mike, I'm happy to help. I'll let you know when I see a nice Bancroft Tiddler for you!  I'll shoot you a email later about the Life Magazine as it just arrived.As for modern, the companies have made it really difficult to be a collector these days. Mantle had a ton produced during his career, but the modern stuff far outweighs it. There are some 52 Topps style cards I may get at some point though just because of the aesthetics. But, I don't plan to put anything really serious into it.
