What player do you think you have the best collection of in the world? (If any)

Sometimes a change of pace from the same old same old Wags and WaJo and Matty and Cobby and Hoblitzell and Abbatachio does a man good.

Agree completely. There's nothing at all wrong with collecting Wags, Matty, Cobb, etc., but I love seeing different cards than what shows up regularly on eBay and at auction houses.

That Buddy Holly Maple Leaf card of him without the Crickets always seems super cool to me.

Thanks Eddie. A couple more from that set, since we don't seem to be getting many on topic posts anyhow.

I'm working on Tim Wakefield, Dwight Evans and Jim Rice - can't claim any significance there yet. But, I would stack my Jamie Quirk collection up against all comers (seriously, yes, I collect Jamie Quirk).

Joe Torre.

I have the #1 collection on PSA; and I have some game worn (Yankees) jerseys; three bats, including one I just picked up here from a Net54 member which is from his rookie season, plus a signed Braves ball with him on it from his rookie season (he only appeared in two games!); plus press photos, etc.

Not sure I can lay claim to the #1 spot on Steve Garvey, considering mrmopar's vast collection and the fact that I'm #3 on the Steve Garvey PSA Master Set (and that #1 & #2 have left me in the dust), but I have a pretty fair collection. Mine, however, is limited to his playing years and pretty much just material that has been, or could be, graded.

Here a link to my PSA-graded set, if you wanna have a look-see:

I concur with Pete and Eddie - nice to see variety.

If everyone collected the same 10 players, it would be boring as hell.

That said, I have a pretty decent Sir Stanley Matthews collection, including a pre-war signed card.

This is a 1/1 that eluded me, but I have hope.

I'm looking for any Ira Thomas baseball cards (1909-1915)
