Since there's a thread going on the prewar side about the 19th century "holy grail" I figured it would be fun to see which single card is the highlight of everyone's postwar collection. It should be interesting to see what everyone comes up with!

took me more than 15 years to find them both, and I will never move them, since they are my cousins. I'm just glad they both have fairly good registration and color.

Card wise, it was probably this one. Now if I can just find Collins/Martin and Tinker/Martin

I'm surprised this thread didn't get more action back in '09.

Its a tie for me between these two Mantles. The 1951 is the true rookie card, but the 1952 is the most popular. If i had to pick just one, yes, it would be the 1952 Topps.

I collect Cardinals team sets and Topps Cardinals autographs. I couldn't decide which test issue or insert to chose, so I chose a very rare modern autographed card.
I only know of 2 that exist, and this is one of them. ![]() |

My trifecta of Post War Holy Grail Cards. I would love to add a PSA 7- 1948 Jackie Robinson RC and PSA 7 1954 Hank Aaron RC to this post one day.

My favorite card ever made. I finally got one a few months back after selling off a whole bunch of useless game used bat/jersey cards.

Probably my 55 Rodeo - Power (Pink) - no wax finish, cut from a sheet.
Sorry no scan. Mark |

It's no Mantle but at least it's a '52 Topps. I'm on a limited budget so I never thought I would actually own this card.

Nice cards! That Houtteman is a great one; legendarily difficult.

It's not my most expensive or nicest post war card but I'd say my 54 Bowman Ted Williams in SGC 50 is the grail. Although I'd really like to own one in an 8 or higher.

My Holy Grail is a gem mint 1962 Salada of #48 Dick Williams (name on right). To go along with it I also have the Brandt (Orioles) and Bailey (C by ear). All I need now is to find a Killebrew variation.
I also have a 1955 Armour Kuenn (Spaced - correct last line) in gold. Got that in a package of hot dogs when I was a kid |

eBay needs to come up with a new rule that every time you buy a card the seller has to provide you with a piece of gum, pack of hot dogs, or whatever originally came with the card.
