The first cards that come to mind for this thread are the '53 Bowman Color Stan Musial and the '56 Topps Mickey Mantle, but I don't own either of those.

Seems like the further you go back in card issue, the tougher it is to find someone smiling. For example, how many T206's show the player smiling, even among the portraits? Not many.

Pre-war



and post-war

The Mick is thrilled to be here, gracing the Pre-War section with his presence.

Side note: Am I the only one that thinks some of his best issues are not from Topps?

Perhaps that smug, self-satisfied smile was the result of really having had a good one this morning.

The "Boy Wonder" often smiled for his baseball card pics:

Only a handful of the 75 cards in the 1941 Double Play set feature two smiling faces...this one is a favorite.
