The word "Absolute" left the door open to include any card, so here's mine:

This card is a recent favorite which started me on collecting
the set. I have a few dozen now and none have the color that
this one does. Its even on the cover of the latest SGC magazine.

Jeff- You beat me to it, the E98 Matty followed closely by the violet E94 Lajoie. (Too lazy to get them out of the safe deposit box).

My favourites are : e94 Wagner, e94 Young and E98 Mathewson. I only have one, so I have to say this one....



I was also suppose to be getting a e98 PSA 1 Mathewson orange background. The seller and I had an agreement on the price, but he never returned my e-mails.. so I guess he didn't want to sell

This is one of a handful of my favorites. I won't jam up the thread with a bunch of scans so will just post my Tyrus behind a brilliant red background, also one of my favorite bargins at $100.

Jeff,
We have very similar taste in cards. If I owned a CJ Jackson, it might be my favorite too. Great card!

Deleted previous scan for Dan Kravit...
My most favorite cards are yet to find their way into my collection, but I am excited for this to arrive in the mail! I've always liked the Hindu backs and Scott Elkins informs me that the Hindu Lindaman is the toughest back that can be found for his card. I am also very fond of my expanding collection of T206 backs and Ecards.

JimB... that e93 Matty is jaw-dropping.


Great thread... and great cards by all.


Since a bunch of you cheated and posted two...
and since my favorite was an obvious one -

In the race for second place in my collection... this one is my 'other' favorite...

Jim, I was thinking the same thing when looking at that E93 Matty. That is far and away my favorite Matty card, my favorite E93 and yours is the best example I've ever seen. That card just blows me away.

Well all Leons post said was post your absolute favorite card, nothing was stated in his post that i had to own it. I make no claim to ownership of the D359 Bender.

...I just went through and read the rest of the thread and see that Leon, in a later post, stated to post cards of personal ownership. I dont always read the dozens of threads everyone posts before posting myself, esp. on "monthly pickup" threads or simaler threads like this. Take a chill pill bro, I like the card, thats all.

Of the post-WWII era.....and the very last BB card I acquired as a kid in the Fall of '52.



LEON

Sorry, but I had to post this one (I know it bugs you); however, there is no way we can select just ONE favorite
card in our collections.

TED Z

Ted- it doesn't bug me at all...that's a great card.....a true classic and possibly the best known card in our whole hobby.....someday I might even acquire one...it's awesome...and to acquire it as a kid is even better...(leon.... and didn't want to push the thread to the top)

Very difficult to pick just one but this '34 Goudey Gehrig gets the nod. Gehrig lives and breathes on this card.

A corollary thread might be "Your absolute favorite card that belongs to someone else." Also very difficult to pick just one but for me Joe D.'s Giants postcard is the winner. The players are in their athletic prime, Matty and Taylor look like big kids. You gotta love it!

Matt:

Glad to see you post that card. I got in a bit of a discussion [argument] with a board member that the Pete Hill card was owned by another board member "who does not post a great deal" but didn't want to out you personally since I couldn't remember if you had shared that card with me privately or on the board (kind of thought privately but my memory is so crappy and I wanted to error on the side of caution and privacy).

Very important card in my view too.

Aaron,

It must have been painful letting go of the Ramly Walter Johnson. It was nicely centered too.

This thead is like walking into a Card Museum. Very impressive. Sadly, I don't have any that's worth showing since 1) I don't own any pre-WW2 cards anymore and 2) all of you know what 1957 Topps look like.

My 1st big vintage purchase is still my fave. The Goudey Gehrigs from '33 and '34 are simply the best cards from that decade... period.

After getting married we weren't exactly flush - but nonetheless I had worked hard to find a quality diamond for my precious gal's finger....So around a year later I was breathing heavy over a scan of this card while perched at my desktop, wistful but not wishful. She walked up behind me, sensed my greater than usual interest, asked if it was a card I really wanted, and responded to my starting protestations (somewhat half-hearted ): "It can be YOUR diamond ring".
I'll love her forever for being such a generous soul.

Daniel

Ps. And its even prettier in hand, deep deep blue background and super focus, I recommend one to everyone!
