What's #1 on your football want list?

[jefferyepayne]

There was a thread like this years ago but time for an update.

What football card is at the top of your want list right now?

A signed and slabbed Henry Jordan card at a reasonable price.

I'm with you on those, particularly Unitas.

Any exhibit football card color variations (blue, pink, yellow, green, red). It's like that girl in the white t bird in American Graffiti...I've seen her, but haven't met her...

You and me both, brother. Spent all week at the National asking about these and did not see one. I have a green ink card but no colored stock variations. Really wish I'd pulled the trigger on a pair I saw a few nationals ago for $400 each.

Joe, I missed that damned Thorpe by less than an hour.

I got a Unitas RC on Ebay thats PSA 3.5


FYI: if anyone is looking for a nice 35 Bronko Nag...someone on PSA is selling a very NICE one (that looks like a 5) but graded a psa 1.5 (due to paperloss on the back) 4k

Always have ogled a 65 Namath from a far....A far cry from what I'll spend.

I am closing in on completing several sets so I have a few #1s:
1957 Topps Starr RC
1957 Topps Hornung RC
1962 Topps Ditka RC
1962 Topps Tarkenton RC
Maybe my "Number One" "Number One":
1962 Post #93 Dave Baker

1962 Topps Ditka RC

Need it along with a few others to complete our set.

[CowboysGuide]

1969 Kelly's Zip Chips Bob Hayes sticker
1968 American Oil Mr. & Mrs. - the Mr. Dan Reeves left half

[jefferyepayne]

#1 for me is probably a Pottsville Maroons RPPC of Tony Latone ... the only card of a player who SHOULD be in the HOF.

Jim Thorpe Olympic card would be mine.

Or a 28 Grange Star Player Candy.

Other than that, programs, postcards, ticket stubs and uncut sheets. I'm narrowing my collection down.

I thought you had those already, Joe. Which one are you after?

[Publius]

The Capital Candy and Cracker one from Sacramento Jeff. I have a scan of one but too lazy to post. I'll email it to you

[K-Nole]

Since I succeeded in getting the Ditka Rookie, now, it is the 1966 Topps football Funny Ring Checklist unmarked.

Brent, I thought you were predominately a boxing collector. Why the sudden interest in football and especially Thorpe?

Brent has had that card for quite a while. I've been trying to get him to sell it to me for years and years ...
