After the success of the 1955 set, Topps continued with a similar style card with horizontal portraits and action photos. This 1956 complete set, VG-EX, totaling 342 cards with checklists, remains popular and features #135 Mickey Mantle in his first appearance in a Topps issue since the 1953 set. Mantle had signed exclusively with the Bowman card company for 1954 and 1955. The set includes #5 Williams, #33 Clemente, #79 Koufax, #130 Mays, and #251 Yankees Team. The checklists are unmarked and in EX condition.
