Mantle is still the answer to almost any question about best postwar cards. If not Mantle, agree with the Aaron rookie. I wouldn't get a pitcher.

The 53 Mantle is I think a good choice. Find one that is dead-centered and the best you can afford.

Out of those 3 you listed, I would go with the 52 bowman Mantle, and you should be able land a 52 bowman Mays with your price range. That would be a great foundation.
