I've written a lot on this blog about the experience of collecting the entire 1956 Topps set with my Dad over a 20 year period. If and when I ever have a little extra time to spare, I'm going to start a 1956 Topps blog, recounting when and where we acquired each card and delving into the background of each player, manager or coach featured within the 342-card set.
Until then, I've put together a gallery of the Phillies cards in the set, along with a few Phillies cards that never were. The new gallery can be found here, and here are a few other posts about collecting this wonderful set:
