Well, I still have the '53 Topps Mantle in my collection. In 1985, I couldn't have bought up dozens of vintage cards as an investment anyway, as I was barely clinging to my job and my marriage was falling apart. I guess I was using the hobby as a way to take my mind off the other stuff. Went to the Strongsville show again the next year and, if memory serves, looked for the same dealer, but couldn't find him. I was working on the '53 Bowman set then and thought I might make another deal for a VG/EX Mantle for his card number - $59 - but no such luck.
