Out of all the cards in your collection, what's your favorite back? Regardless of monetary worth or who's on the front.

End of thread - Sean wins! One reason I like this back is that Holmes Bakery was located in the DC area, which is where I live. When I was a youth, I lived near a stream named Holmes Run - I have wondered if there is any connection.

Cool cards, but am I the only one who has grown weary over the years of the "show your Johnson's" "show us your backsides" double entendre type of posts? However you spell it.
Maybe I'm growing humorless in my old age. Or it's just been a long lousy week.

My favorite backs I own are a tie with these two. And Steve, I didn't think about it as anything but "show us the back of your cards" when I read it first. I don't know if the OP meant it different or not, but I didn't take it that way. I hope you have a nice weekend since you had a lousy week.

The only back in my collection so far, but I'm looking forward to making the Piedmont, Hundo, and Red Cross (Mello Mint would be fun also)....

Default Back Autos & Burdick Stamp

Here's a few of my favorites. The Burdick stamped T201 is also amazingly signed by Leifield on the front...

The Tango is my favorite. If we are going for "issued as intended", it is a tie between the other two.

Many great ones posted. Here's one I haven't seen here yet:

Since others have posted postwar backs I’ll post this one. ‘54 had some great backs. And they actually made Jackie look like an African American which isn’t true for all Topps issues.

These are my two favorite backs - Brown Old Mill and Brown Lenox. And, great Pirate backs! In my opinion, the pirate backs are the coolest of all backs, any card, any era
