Hard to compete with T227 Cobb for sure but horizonal Matty's are very nice

Default E beautiful

The horizontal Matty (like TheBig6 posted) have always been near the top of my list. I love the composition of the card. A cool thought...what if they had done a full image of this pose (imagine seeing his entire pitching pose in T3 size).

The most beautiful card IMHO is the 1934 Goudey Gehrig (Portrait). When I started making good money, that was the first card I had to own and although not in pristine condition, I bought a PSA 5. It is now in my safe deposit box.

I think it would be my T3 Schmidt proof or my T206 Cobb Green. Sorry about the proof, but it under glass framed.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this beautiful T202 Hassan featuring Joe Jackson

George Sisler's Turf Cigarettes card always caught my eye:


Always thought the N162s were stunning as well:

Although...Leon's Cobb and the T205 Matty are very close seconds, imho.
