In no particular order, here are some of my favorite items.
62 Topps. The first card. Someday I might try to get one in a high grade, but for now, these 2 will suffice. It also holds sentimental value, because my wife got me the ungraded one while we were dating 28 years ago. She asked me what I wanted for Christmas, and I, knowing she knew nothing of cards said a "52 Topps Mickey Mantle". So she went to all the card shops she could find, and when she realized it was $1000 or more back then, she got me the Brock rookie. She was scared to death I'd not like it, but I told her she "Done good" and then to prove it, I married her.

A woman that will go looking for a specific card is a keeper indeed

Woody Gellman worked for Topps for years. His QC was to take 2 complete Topps sets each year, and paste them into a binder. Over the years Topps Vault has been selling off these pages. Here is the 64 page, with a front and back of Lou Brock. The 63 page was on ebay a week or so ago, I was outbid, my high bid was in the $150 range.

There was a good discussion on them earlier in the thread in the 1970 cards.
