Default Need some collector help

I am looking to make a major purchase for my collection. I am only adding one of the three following choices to my PC and I am looking for some input from the members of this forum as to which of the three cards you would desire. My collection is all over the place ranging from 1887 to present. I have always placed a bit more stock on the vintage stuff but look at more modern also. Price for me is always a major concern since I am quite frugal with my money but I am not putting any values on them, at this point. Just looking for some input. LMK what you think and thanks!

1887 Allen and Ginter Jack Glasscock SGC 60



1940 Playball Jimmy Foxx PSA 5



1967 Topps Tom Seaver RC Raw EX

I have a raw copy of the Foxx card I'd be willing to trade. I collect pre-WWI pugilist cards though. I looked through your trade list. It doesn't look like we share too many similar interests but I figured I put that out there for you or anybody else.

James Emory Foxx with the N28 being a close second. Unless Seaver is your all time favorite player he should not even be in this discussion.

Good luck and let us know what you end up with.

This was moved from the postwar section to get a few more eyes on it. I vote the N28. All are great looking cards though.

Glasscock is what I would covet the most out of the three. Ok, that sounds weird.

N28. Nearly a 130 year old card. No brainer to me.

The N28 Glascock is one of my favorite cards in the hobby. You can probably find a better Seaver for cheaper, and the Foxx isn't really a "classic" card that will highlight your collection. So definitely Glascock for me.

Good luck.

N28s are some of the most beautiful cards around. The Glasscock gets my vote as well.

Go with the N28 card. Much rarer and more valuable. Good Luck.

The N28. I love Foxx but that is not one of the best foxx card imo. The Seaver rookie is a key for that set but the centering kills that for me.
More importantly which card do you want?

For those who may be interested. This is what I ended up picking up. Tried to be more frugal with my money but very satisfied. They fit nicely into my collection.
