Very interesting, thanks for sharing. I'm surprised the 1941 Play Ball Ted Williams and Joe DiMaggio haven't been voted in already.

Memory failure again...I just voted and cannot recall exactly which ones I voted for...so here's eleven - ten of which I voted for:

1909 Ramly- Walter Johnson
T206- Eddie Plank
1915/16 Sporting News - Babe Ruth
1933 Goudey- Napoleon Lajoie
1939 Playball- Joe DiMaggio
1950 Bowman- Jackie Robinson
1953 Bowman Color- Peewee Reese
1953 Topps- Mickey Mantle
1954 Wilson Franks- Ted Williams
1956 Topps- Mickey Mantle
1967 Topps Mets Rookie Stars (Tom Seaver)

I would have included the 1949 Bowman- Larry Doby and I like the Jackie Robinson and Satchel Paige cards from that set a lot better than the 1948 Leaf issues. AND the two 1934 Goudey- Lou Gehrig cards which are much more appealing that the 1933 issue.

I have owned most of the 30 cards already inducted, but sold many of them within the last few months...and, yes, I miss them.

I am surprised that t206 Plank, M101 Ruth and 1933 Goudey Lajoie weren't in the original class. How is the Baltimore News Ruth and 1925 Exhibit Gehrig not even on the ballot? Yet a card was put in because it has a cuss word on it. That should tell you all you need to know about who is voting.
