Item Description
2.5x3.5". The 1957 Topps Baseball set consists of 407 cards and marked the first year the company would use the now-standard measurement for cardboard collectibles. The 1957 Topps also switched to full color images (either bust portraits or in-action poses) in lieu of handpainted black-and-white photos on the front, with his name and team printed across the bottom, and statistical data on the reverse. Unlike similar Topps entries, the scarcities lie not in the high numbers but in the second of the set's three series - #s 265-352 - and four unnumbered checklist cards printed with one of two different product advertisements on the back.

This card represents the first time that two superstars were featured on a combo card in a major Topps set. Between the two Yankee legends, they amassed a total of six AL MVP's in their amazing run of championships. Mickey mantle was inducted into the Naional Baseball Hall Of Fame in 1974 while Yogi Berra was enshrined in 1972.
