What are your 5 favorite cards of all-time?
I am curious and would like to see other's list of their favorite all-time cards. I am NOT talking set, issue, team, player, etc. and value had NOTHING to do with my question. Year, make and player are what I am looking for. PC's, strip, cabinet, or whatever as "what is a card" is not the debate here either as for the sake of argument if you call it it a card, then its a card on this thread. Put them in order, or don't. I think I'd roll out:
* 1914 CJ Matty * 1869 Peck and Snyder CDV Cinci with the P/S ad back * 1903 B/W Wagner * 1910 Sepia 796 Cobb/Wags (I HAD to include this) * 1903 B/W Matty I guess I am a little Matty biased? He looks like a downright stud on his rookie card. Mine are not in any order and #6 would probably be the Mello-Mint Matty. Any opinions? |

Too tough of a list, but I've always been in love with the '34 Gehrig yellow background (such a gorgeous card) and my favorite T206 is Pattee, love the background. I hope to own either someday.

Top 5 that I've owned at one time or another:
1. Voskamp's Coffee Gibson 2. Obak Ten Million 3. C46 Gandil 4. E105 Mello-Mint Gibson 5. 1952 Topps Jackie Robinson Probably best to stop there. The "that I'd like to own" list stands at about 500 so to cull out just 5 will take a while...and I need to go to work today Regards, Richard. |

5 Favorite All-Time Cards
Here are my top five:
1) 1917 Ruth (Collins McCarthy, Boston Store or Standard Biscuit) 2) 1921 E220 Nat'l Caramel Ruth (Early 1920's Ruth in swinging pose donning striped white cap, Pologrounds grandstand in background & American flag draped by stands - talk about Americana at its best!) 3) 1914 Cracker Jack Cobb (classic baseball card) 4) 1917 Joe Jackson (Collins McCarthy or Boston Store) 5) 1911 JKA Mathewson (by far my favorite Mathewson Card because of the unique real photo pitching pose) |
