Description

2006 Topps Mickey Mantle Home Run History is a 536-card, cross-brand, mirror insert, released across a variety of 2006 and 2007 Topps Baseball sets. Like the 2005 Topps Barry Bonds Home Run History and 2007 A-Rod Road to 500 sets, one card was created for each of Mickey Mantle's 536 career home runs. Like the Bonds and A-Rod sets, the design of each Mantle card is identical, the lone difference being the number of the home run being celebrated.
