Written by Monte Jennings | Dec 22, 2022 3:07:42 AM

You have the opportunity to own a card from one of our favorite baseball sets of all-time. Our sister company, Vintage Breaks, just listed a complete set break of 1956 Topps baseball! See how you can join the card breaks with your chance at a graded Mickey Mantle, Jackie Robinson, Hank Aaron and all of the stars.

We love teaming up with our sister company, Vintage Breaks, especially when it could help you land a a graded card of legendary players like Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente or Hank Aaron. A brand new break has been listed and Vintage Breaks has spots available to purchase now.

1956 TOPPS BASEBALL SET BREAK

The 1956 Topps baseball set is one of our favorite sets. The iconic design has a portrait of each player along with an action shot in the background. The horizontal design always catches our eyes. Mickey Mantle made his return to Topps baseball cards this year, too. Mantle had a contract with Bowman baseball cards for 1954 and 1955 and never appeared on Topps cards in those two seasons. 

These are the exact cards from the set break. You can see the horizontal design we mentioned, a portrait of each player, and the action shot in the background. 

Highlights include:

  • Hank Aaron graded SGC 4
  • Roberto Clemente graded SGC 4
  • Jackie Robinson graded SGC 4.5
  • Mickey Mantle graded SGC 3
  • Ted Williams graded SGC 3.5
  • Sandy Koufax graded SG 3
  • + more stars and Hall of Famers!

As there are 340 cards in the set, only 340 spots in the break will be sold - this ensures that you will take home a card from the set. The list of name is always randomized LIVE on the show as the break occurs; you have the same chance as everyone else in the break to land the cards you desire. For example - If you land on spot #135 after the random, you will take home card #135, Mickey Mantle! If you land on spot #30, you'll receive card #30 in Jackie Robinson. Take a trip back in time when you used to put these cards into your bike spokes or opening a wax pack while rocking our to the newest Elvis song. Back when you had to "warm up the TV" and only had ABC, CBS or NBC to choose from!
