For amusement I've been buying some RCs of the best female athletes. Here's what I have in basketball and tennis so far (no hockey!!) and a few other sports as well.

And finally, a surreal looking Finnish Sportscaster of perhaps the greatest female swimmer ever Tracy Caulkins, and a more normal looking Sportscaster of a woman whose feats are almost incomprehensible.

A few more examples. I don't really know enough about over/under valued but my budget doesn't exactly break the bank and I think some of these are a fun, affordable option to the all-timers in the big 4.

Naama Shafir is arguably the greatest orthodox Jewish women's basketball player ever. She is the first orthodox woman to get a full basketball scholarship to a division I program. Here is a signed pocket schedule with a note from her.

Ok this thread is awesome. I can’t believe nobody has a Manon Rheaume yet. I personally do not have one to show off.

However, my wife won two NCAA tennis championships, and I made her sign her tennis racket she used in the final a few years ago because there might be a crazy person like all of us in 100 years that wants it. Haha.

You all are the best.

I like this thread. Unfortunately I am without scanner presently.

But I realize I have a pretty significant ladies collection going back to the 1920s.

Gymnastics, hockey, track, skating, swimmers, basketball, golfers, tennis and a full set of autographed 1994 women's soccer team (Akers, Hamm, Lilly, Jennings, Hamilton and Foudy, all Hall of Famers )

I've got a ton of Helen Wills cards from the 1920s-1930s, mostly from Germany, Italy, France, England. I spent a long time hunting down boxing cards and many were a part of multisport sets. She was, apparently, quite the tennis player because she appeared in many of the sets.
