There is no Musial. That is why I would do the 1953 Bowman set for a Mantle. It has all the stars that are missing from 1954 & 1955 Topps.

Indeed. I don't think any other set has even 4 of the 5.

In my personal opinion, the '55 is the best looking Topps set of all--absolutely beautiful cards!

May your collecting bring joy, over and over,

Larry
