Not sure if this thread sparked it or if it was the really attractive, low-grade Sport Kings Carl Hubbell in the PWCC auction, but I just got to thinking about how maybe my "Top 50" card display (oddly except to me, one card of each of the Top 50 players who played between 1933 and 1969)--even once it adds Ruth/Gehrig--still leaves off too many great players of the 1930s: Hubbell, Gehringer, Dickey, etc.
An easy solution would be to remove a few of the guys I have there just because...e.g., 1933 Lefty O'Doul, 1933 Hack Wilson, 1964 Roger Maris... and then replace them with better players. But then I got to thinking how maybe the better approach is to add a second Pennzoni display case and go after the top 100, perhaps from 1933-1979. If so, I've got a REALLY long way to go before I'm all done.
