And if you can find a low grade one that you are happy with, all the better. Otherwise I still think Young Portrait is a good value. The Cy Young award will always keep his name in the forefront.

See...this is the kind of card that money can�t even buy at times. Rarely does the good eye appeal stuff come up for sale. Tremendous value and nice pickup Leon.

I agree. For as long as I could remember the green portrait Cobb and Young cards were pretty much at the same tier. Then Cobb soared. I thing Young has room to move.

As for undervalued, I don't think there are really any sleepers. I agree with Kenny that the Walsh is one of the nicest cards in the set and that Collins is spectacular. I am very happy I got mine years ago:

Another group you cannot go wrong with:

Also gotta give it up for the Chief:

I always thought it was one of the nicest ones in the set.

Ryan, agreed, well said.

Adam, great cards.

I like the Frank Chance - Red, particularly since the yellow was, I believe, double printed, like the Cobb Red. I also like the Waddell and Keeler.
