Mays is easily one of the top 10 players in MLB history. Mantle is somewhere in the top 25. I don't think Snider should be considered one of the top 100.
Also, 1949 Bowman is particularly ugly, and 1951 Bowman particularly beautiful. |

This is my favorite Snider, also like the 53BC but don't own one.

.919 OPS should be a shoo-in for the HOF if you had a significant length career.
If you throw out the roid-heads and the guys from the ridiculous homer happy era we're in now it's even more impressive. Including everyone it is STILL 48th of all time and while he wasn't the greatest center fielder of all time he did have a great arm and racked up a lot of outfield assists. 6 top 10 MVP finishes. If anything he's underrated.

Snider is certainly worthy of the Hall, but he's not iconic like Mantle, Mays, or Aaron, or Jackie and a few others.

First thing that struck me seeing how short that card is.

+1....just spoke to someone who collected them out of packs. He says left border should be a little rough factory cut and that top....well, most of the top
Around half of the high grade ones on ebay look to be trimmed. (smooth left border)Quote:
