T206 Sheckard.jpg How "bout this RARE T206 Sheckard Toking on a Pipe...I understand it had to be air-brushed out. Nice to know that kids were defacing cards WAY BEFORE I started doing it as a kid!!!

A few years beyond our pre-war cutoff, but the smile is too classic to not post it here....

No smile thread is complete without Joe Martina



(I'd use his Diaz image since it's the same but I can't find a Val post with it)

Too much negativity in the world. Gonna take more than one smile. Props to the OP for a great thread.

Not baseball but couldn't resist.

Just to bring you back down to Earth, Kenesaw Mountain Landis flashes a broad smile (at least for him).

There is an interesting Forbes article on the power of smiling and it talks a bit about sportscards and smiling!

That Leafs photo is perfect for this thread, David. So nice.

Saw that Cobb comin' a mile away, Jeff. Never get tired of seeing it.

In my limited collection, it's actually tough to find a pre-war smile.
