Top 5 pieces
 
5 Attachment(s)
Ok, so I need a card fix and would like to see everyone's top 5 pieces. It doesn't need to be cards. It can be photos, pics, memorabilia, whatever you are most satisfied and happy to have. I also shamelessly admit that I want to see my 5 favorite cards together. I'm a Cuban card guy, so here are mine:

Those are pretty cool!

There are a few non-sports cards of famous people I wouldn't mind having myself.

I have never seen the Monet or Caruso cards before. Very nice.

A few more famous folks.

Kenny Cole 07-06-2017 09:10 PM

I was never much of a Picasso fan. I have several Monet prints and like Matisse as well, although not as much as Monet. I run hot and cold on most of the impressionistic painters, but I have always liked Monet.

Tonight, I would say these, but that changes sometimes.

Brian 07-06-2017 09:30 PM

Peter, love the Einstein card. What is it?

OT: the new National Geographic series "Genius" is outstanding, well worth a watch. Plus Moe Berg features in it, too!

Peter,

Very, very nice.

But you forgot to let us know that Rita Cansino is probably better known to us as Rita Hayworth. (And as my late father used to say, "Hubba-Hubba!")

I was thinking the same thing...gotta be David Schwimmer in that pic!

Nice Schwimmer rookie.

I am merely a mortal man...my top 5 are some of the classics!!!!! They're classics for a reason. The 2nd tier of top 5's would be more "interesting!"

#4 for sure at the moment!

Sean 07-07-2017 07:40 PM

Hey Pete, nice Ruth.:)

But what's up with that Cobb green? I thought that you were allergic to T206s.

That's my 1 T206 keeper...for now! And I've had it a long time.

Pete, I think you are right. After due reflection here are my next top 8 since I couldn't narrow it down.

This is an interesting thread. It was tough to narrow it down to five. This exercise made me realize that my favorites change over time as I've recently told people that my Edd Rousch signed 1915 Cracker Jack and my Tris Speaker signed 33 Goudey were my favorite cards, but those didn't make the list.

Wow! Sweet! I love Cobb's typical green sig on that background...pastel dream!

But I am still rolling on the floor after seeing the Ross Geller rookie! Why have I not added that to my collection yet?

Why did they put that McCormick in that huge holder? And won't the corners get destroyed if it bumps into something?

Kenny Cole 07-07-2017 09:25 PM

Yeah, I need to get it reholdered. It's ridiculous.
