Eh, why did they bother ...I remember those borders. Eh, why did they bother to mix them up like that? Worse yet, the quality of the photos they used were awful. At the very least Topps vastly improved the player pictures they used in the '91 set. <br /><br />Will your '91 Topps Mantle be a horizontal card? I remember Topps mixing those into that and the '92 sets.Vonnooshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06005959186549294959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332216713105600925.post-43046924247434244072012-08-08T05:45:29.728-07:002012-08-08T05:45:29.728-07:00@ Brent- Too true but as Vonnoosh pointed out Topp...@ Brent- Too true but as Vonnoosh pointed out Topps eventually stepped up in '91 with Stadium Club.<br /><br />@ Vonoosh - This card the borders kinda matched but Topps used several different colored borders without regard to team colors. Other Yankee cards had green, purple, orange, whatever.<br /><br />@ HH99 - I found several cool shots of Mantle on the internet so I might make a few more once I finish this run.Cards That Never Werehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10893879930871693614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332216713105600925.post-53422227242577050842012-08-07T07:05:14.015-07:002012-08-07T07:05:14.015-07:00i think vonnoosh is on to something. you need to d...i think vonnoosh is on to something. you need to do some inserts and subsets also.hh99https://www.blogger.com/profile/09923526650773636770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332216713105600925.post-59377175267447509562012-08-06T17:26:02.104-07:002012-08-06T17:26:02.104-07:00Glad the card borders match the Yankee uniforms. P...Glad the card borders match the Yankee uniforms. Personally, I hate the 1991 Topps cards more and it's sad that Topps decided to branch out that year and produce other baseball sets instead of focusing on making the best possible standard set. Will you make a 1991 Topps Stadium Club Mantle with the regular issue?Vonnooshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06005959186549294959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332216713105600925.post-14024291134052239852012-08-06T16:47:01.932-07:002012-08-06T16:47:01.932-07:00Couldn't agree more.
