Prewar it's the Four Base Hits King Kelly
Postwar (for me anyway) it's the 1956 Lincoln Mutual Dick Stuart

I like these Post-War/Pre-War portraits of Berra and Durham. Ruth and DiMaggio action cards turn me on.
Funny thing...They all are from New York.

I have to say I am also partial to this '53 Bowman Color Ralph Kiner.



This is my first vintage graded card. One of my all-time favorite players from my favorite ever baseball card set. What's not to love?

I can see that I mean that is probably one of the finest Mantle's I have ever seen. Can't believe it is a 6. To be honest it looks almost just as good as the 8.5 up for sale in the REA auction. Just a little more off centered.

I have to agree with Adrian. My eye is not yet as developed as the longtime collectors of this forum, but if that's a six, it's one of the most beautiful sixes I've ever seen.
