I hope someone can help me with this one as well. I know the 2007 Topps has the Gibson homer history set and a Mantle story set. Where does this fit in?

Searching the mantle cards for card "MHR270" yielded the 2006 Topps Chrome stuff. Could this be an insert from the 2006 Topps set? ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024). I have added a large portion of my inventory to the site, and currently have trading turned on (details are in my profile).

As I recall the cards were issued over 2 or 3 years. I'm pretty sure the "set" was started in 2006 with cards depicting home runs 1- 101. The next set of 100 (102- 201) were included in the update set. The cards continued with another 100 in Series 1 of the 2007 set and another 100 in the Series 2. Cards 402- 501 were in the Update set. The final 35 cards, 502- 536 were an insert/ subset in the 2008 Topps set.

I'm going by memory here and may be wrong, but pretty sure it was something like that.

I notice the site here has all 536 cards listed in the 2006 set. I know they weren't all put out at the same time.

Hope that helps.
