WOW, Leon!

As a Boston collector, that is the most beautiful card I have ever seen!

And I wouldn't sell it either.

Thanks for sharing!

Nice! Best of luck in your goal!

While i love most of my cards unequivocally...i consider my miller run my centerpiece...as it encompasses my love for rare cards, type collecting... And is proving to be quite challenging to complete .

Most of them are present here.

Maybe not a "mega-card" but I love it.

Not seen often, many HOFer's and just an overall cool piece.

Added to say a great transaction with a board member for it!

Don't blame you a bit, Leon--that one is definitely a keeper!

Highest and best,

Leon, will you reconsider my very generous offer for your E90-1 Cy unique football variation card. I dream about it, but that is probably not healthy.

Hi John
I will consider it.
Had the moons not aligned, and Heritage had my collection for sale at the time, I never could have afforded it. It is a big purchase (to me) which I have not regretted for a second. There some fantastic cards in this thread and thanks to everyone who has shared.
PS...dreaming about cards is not healthy, though I bet every hardcore collector on this board has done it!!

This is cheating a bit, but these four are probably tied for my favorite.
