I'd sure add this pair of last cards from their actual careers (both appear on cards a year after these) to the must-have list. The absolutely beautiful, playful Roberto Clemente shot (never mind that his In Action card is sequentially higher), and Willie Mays back in New York, finally donning his Mets uniform...

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

+1 for sure on the '72 Clemente #309. A poignant shot if you think about it...6 months after that card appeared, he would be dead. In terms of Clemente cards, still one that will not totally break the bank in nice shape.

& HEY - Darren. I recognize that card...! ;-)

How could we forget this one?



And yes, I am 10 years old; or at least have the maturity of a ten year old (my wife will swear to that).

Was keeping on eye on an EBAY auction of a really nice SGC 4 52 Topps Mantle with this thread in the back of my mind. Granted, it was a beautiful card but I was shocked at the late surge last nite. 36 K with an hour to go and almost 30 more bids to finish at slightly less than 58000. Some collectors won`t be denied.

That Mantle was nearly dead centered and those are very hard to find. Im not surprised at all.
